Lost in the Wilderness Lyrics by Stephen Schwartz

Children of Eden: American Premiere Recording

0

[ABEL]
Here we are your grateful children
Please accept our sacrifice
May you hear us and forgive us
Bring us back to paradise
[CAIN]
All these years of this cruel joke
The best harvest going up in smoke
Praying for a future from these silent stony shelves
How much more of this must we take
This is the morning we finally make a future for ourselves!
[ABEL]
But Cain if it's God's will
[CAIN]
Is it God's will or have we all been conned
Brother we will never know
We will never grow
If we never go
Beyond
I never made this world, I didn't even lose it
And I know no one said it was fair
But they had a garden once
They had the chance to choose it
They gave it away including my share
And now we're lost in wilderness
Lost,crying in the wilderness
And if anyone's watching it seems they couldn't care less
We're lost wilderness
You follow all the rules
You swallow all the stories
And every night you wish on a star
Dreaming your day will come, trusting in allegories
And every morning boy look where you are
Lost in the Wilderness
Lost, slowly dying in the wilderness
With no chance of living boy, until you confess
You're lost in the wilderness
Don't you ever watch the eagle fly to the sun
And wonder how he got to be so free
If you ever have you know your journey's begun
Hey what've we got to lose boy, when already we are
Lost in the wilderness
And where we are headed boy, I couldn't guess but
Off we go without a warning
Running as we hit the ground
Where our future lies a-borning
Where our hearts are outward bound
Till one bright and distant morning
We may stop and look around
And there in the wilderness
Finally we'll be found!
