lyrics

Seven Daughters Of Eve

I wandered lost through seven hills
The mists of time took hold, enveloped me
Then seven daughters did appear
And everything was clear to see

The family we know
We leave but don’t let go
To find our place to be
The more that we explore
The mother to us all
Should hold her family

They say that all roads lead to Rome
And life draws from the daughters of Eve
Where we began and where we go
Becomes the legacy we leave

We all need to know where we came from
We all need to belong
Footprints in history
Show to me my world

In seven days the world began
Then seven sisters danced upon the stone
With seven virtues, seven sins
And seven children of their own

The family we know
We leave but don’t let go
To find our place to be
The more that we explore
The mother to us all
Should hold her family

We all need to know where we came from
We all need to belong
Footprints in history
Show to me my world
