Paula Cole (born April 5, 1968 in Rockport, Massachusetts, USA) is an American singer and songwriter. Among her hits include "Where Have All the Cowboys Gone," "Me," "I Am So Ordinary," "I Believe In Love," and the theme to the WB's hit series "Dawson's Creek," "I Don't Want to Wait." Cole released her debut album, Harbinger, in 1994 with Imago Records. She so entranced the industry with her vocals that she was asked to tour as an opening act for Peter Gabriel; she also appeared with Melissa Etheridge to sing a duet on VH1 though she was not well-known at the time. Harbinger featured songs dwelling on Cole's personal experience with discrimination and unhappiness. The songs were musically lush but driven and bleak.

Garden Of Eden Lyrics
Paula Cole
Here I am, a black-eyed bird, remaining silent.
I simply watch, your little life from high above.
Wanting to call you, wanting to sing,
Inside your ears and lips and eyes and soul,
I dig my grave, behind the gates of babylon.
Theres a garden of eden
In your distant heart,
Garden of eden
In your earthly arms.
Here I stand, a serpent queen of the garden.
Im beckoning, but you ignore my siren song.
Oh I long, to touch you, to step inside your sacred gate.
Ill dig my grave in the middle of golden Bible snake.
Theres a garden of eden
In your distant heart,
Garden of eden
In your earthly arms.
The black-eyed bird is dying,
The queen is dead,
Shell never step foot in eden.
Theres a garden of eden
In your distant heart,
Garden of eden
In your earthly arms.
