When Creation Was Young - Joy Williams

When creation was young

Before rivers learned to run

Before hell caught fire

And God made the sun

When creation was young

Before Adam fell for Eve

Before birds found melody

Before the apple hit the ground not far from the tree

Before Adam fell for Eve

Oh, I was loving you

I was loving you

I was loving you

Loving you

Before gold found the hills

Before fields felt a blade of a till

Before the sky was black as coal and the Earth stood still

Before gold found the hills

Oh, I was loving you

I was loving you

I was loving you

Loving you

Before you, you took a breath

Before sin ever confessed

Before hate was a word and life found death

Before you, you took a breath

Oh, I was loving you

I was loving you

I was loving you

Loving you

When creation was young

Before rivers learned to run

Before hell caught fire and God made the sun

When creation was young
