Lyrics

For The Love Of Cain

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

If I said I was Abel

Would you know my name?

I've swung from the trees in the Garden of Eden

And I have shorn off my mane

I've got no horns sticking out

I've got no sting in my tail

I've got no sins to pluck out

Because I do so well

And maybe I can raise the stakes

For the love of Cain

For the love of Cain

We'll dissolve our schemes

And indulge our dreams

For the love of Cain

If you look out your window

With your Sunday smile

If you walk hand in hand through the Valley of Evil

You walk the miracle mile

I just need someone to love

Straight from the cradle to the grave

Maybe it's you I'm thinking of

Because I know your game

And maybe I can raise the stakes

For the love of Cain

For the love of Cain

We'll dissolve our schemes

And indulge our dreams

For the love of Cain
