John Oates - Carved In Stone lyrics

At the dawn of man... there was a perfect plan In the garden light... stood the tree of life But when Adam ate the apple... his choice was his own It wasn't eve that did him wrong We're only flesh and bone Not carved in stone In a perfect world when a boy meets a girl They live a dream never knowing that nothing's Carved in stone... they say "lets stay together" Like the al green song... I hope their love is as strong We're only flesh and bone We're not carved In stone Though your body's weak but your spirit's strong And from the day you're born Each step's a fork in the road that you're on We're only flesh and bone Not carved in stone One night stand innocent woman and man Deep from the pleasure dome into the great unknown Can't walk away after the seed is sown Can't leave a child to live his life alone We're only flesh and bone We're not carved in stone Though your body's weak but your spirit's strong And from the day you're born Each step's a fork In the road that you're on We're only flesh and bone Not carved in stone
