| | | | | When all the worst we fear lets fall its weight When the gyre widens on and when the wave breaks When St. Peter loses cool and bars the gates When Atlas acts the maggot makes his arms shake When the birds are heard again in their singin' Once atrocity is hoarse from voicin' shame And when the earth is trembling on some new beginnin' With the same sweet shock of when Adam first came Be be be be be Be as you've always been Be be be be be Be as you've always been (Lover be good to me) Be as you've always been (Lover be good to me) Be like the love that discovered the sin (Lover be good to me) That freed the first man and will do so again And lover be good to me (Lover be good to me) Be that hopeful feeling when Eden was lost (Lover be good to me) It's been deaf to our laughter since the master was crossed (Lover be good to me) Which side of the wall really suffers that cost? Oh lover be good to me | | | When the man who gives the order Is born next time 'round on the boat sent back When the bodies starvin' at the border Are on TV givin' people the sack Oh when the sea rises to meet us Oh when there's nothin' left for you and I to do Oh when there's nobody upstairs to receive us When I have no kind words left love for you Be be be be be Be as you've always been Be be be be be Be as you've always been (Lover be good to me) Ah be love in its disrepute (Lover be good to me) Scorches the hillside and salts every root (Lover be good to me) And watches the slowin' and starvin' of troops And lover be good to me (Lover be good to me) Be there and just as you stand (Lover be good to me) Or be like the rose that you hold in your hand (Lover be good to me) That will grow bold in a barren and desolate land Oh lover be good to me Love won't you be Love won't you be Be as you've always been? Love won't you be Love won't you be Be as you've always been? Love won't you be Love won't you be Be as you've always been? Love won't you be Love won't you be Be as you've always been?
