Pardon me, Madam, my name is Eve   I think it's time for you to leave   I don't believe that we have met   That's one thing you would not forget      In another time or life   When I was his only wife   When I was his only bride   Before I was torn out from his side      In the orchard apples are witherin'   In the shadows somethin' is slitherin'   So go along there if you must   And try to do as I suggest   He's just a gatherin' of dust      And if he can't recall my name   Tell him to take his time, it's worth recoverin'   Look at me, and what I'm covered in   I'm covered in shame      I came back lookin' for my man   Wandered everywhere and then   Stood outside and gazed upon   A beautiful garden, a shimmerin' pond      See the sunlight on the leaves that dapple   Did you see my little teeth marks on the apple?   Don't close the door on the hand I'm offerin'   There is always someone on the outside doin' all of the sufferin'      In the orchard, apples are witherin'   In the shadows, somethin' is slitherin'   But in another time or life   When I was his only wife   When I was his only bride   Before I was torn out   Before I was torn out   Before I was torn out   From his side      Pardon me, Madam, my name is Eve   Pardon me, Madam, my name is Eve   I think it's time for one of us to leave
