Letter to Eve Lyrics


Oh Eve, where is Adam?
I see you've been kept out of the garden
And I said, Oh, Eve, where is Adam?
Now you've been kept out of the garden"I have wandered from shore to shore
Don't you find that there's no more
Pacem in terres me shanti shalom aywahDon't you wish love alone
Don't you wish love
Don't you wish love alone
Don't you wish love
Don't you wish love aloneCould save the world from disaster
Is only love, inner confusion
Is it just one more illusion
And I said
Pacem in terres me shanti shalom aywahWell, if you want to have great love
You've got to have great anger
Well, if you want to have great love
You've got to have great angerWhen I see innocent folks shot down
Should I just shake my head and frown

Oh Pacem in terres me shanti shalom aywahGirl if you want to hit the target square
You've gotta look out
(For it not happening there)
[Unverified]
Or else it'll be just one more time
The correction creates another crimeGirl, if you want to hit the target square
You better not have right angles
Oh, just keep one more time
For the correction creates another crimeOh, Eve, you tell Adam next time he asks you
You say baby it's cold outside
What's the password to come inside
You say
Pacem in terres me shanti shalom haywahOh, Eve go tell Adam we've got to build a new garden
Oh, Eve go tell Adam we've got to build a new garden
Got to get working on a building
A decent home for all of god's children
Oh Pacem in terres me shanti shalom aywahWell, if music could only bring peace
I'd only be a musician
Well, if music could only bring peace
I'd only be a musician
Well, if songs could do more than dull this pain
And all melodies bravely changed wellOh Pacem in terres me shanti shalom aywah
Oh Pacem in terres me shanti shalom aywah
Oh Pacem in terres me shanti shalom aywah
Four thousand languages in this world
Doesn't mean the same thing to every boy and girl
Oh Pacem in terres me shanti shalom aywah
Pacem in terres me shanti shalom aywahSave the world from disaster
Well, if only love
Well, I sad
Just one more illusion
Oh, Pacem in terres me shanti shalom aywah

The Indigo Girls are Amy Ray and Emily Saliers. They met on the playground in grammar school in Decatur, Georgia, USA, and have been playing together since high school.

Their first release in 1985 was a seven-inch single named "Crazy Game", with the B-side "Everybody's Waiting (for Someone to Come Home)". That same year, the Indigo Girls released a six-track Extended play album named "Indigo Girls", and in 1987 released their first full-length album, Strange Fire, recorded at John Keane Studio in Athens, Georgia, and including "Crazy Game". With this release, they secured the services of Russell Carter, who remains their manager to the present; they had first approached him when the EP album was released, but he told them their songs were "immature" and they were not likely to get a record deal.

They were signed to Epic Records in 1989 and won the Grammy for best contemporary folk album later that year (for their self titled release) Some of their hit songs include "Galileo," "Closer to Fine," and "Shame on You."

Aside from being musicians, Ray and Saliers are activists, constantly supporting causes like gun control, women's rights, Native American rights, environmental protection, the abolition of the death penalty, and as lesbians themselves, LGBT rights. They constantly devote their time and money to such causes, often playing benefit concerts.

Ray and Saliers both have side projects. Ray owns and founded Daemon Records, an independent label based in Decatur. She also has a career as a solo artist, and has released two albums thus far. Saliers is the part owner of Watershed, a restaurant and wine bar in Decatur.

Together, the Indigo Girls are constantly touring. Their new album, Poseidon and the Bitter Bug, was released March 24, 2009.
