Lyrics
0:22When all the worst we fear lets fall its weight
0:27When the gyre widens on and when the wave breaks
0:33When St. Peter loses cool and bars the gates
0:38When Atlas acts the maggot makes his arms shake
0:43When the birds are heard again in their singin'
0:48Once atrocity is hoarse from voicin' shame
0:53And when the earth is trembling on some new beginnin'
0:58With the same sweet shock of when Adam first came
1:06Be be be be be
1:11Be as you've always been
1:16Be be be be be
1:21Be as you've always been
1:25Lover be good to me
1:27Be as you've always been
1:30Lover be good to me
1:31Be like the love that discovered the sin
1:34Lover be good to me
1:35That freed the first man and will do so again
1:40And lover be good to me
1:44Lover be good to me
1:45Be that hopeful feeling when Eden was lost
1:49Lover be good to me
1:50It's been deaf to our laughter since the master was crossed
1:53Lover be good to me
1:54Which side of the wall really suffers that cost
1:59Oh lover be good to me
2:13When the man who gives the order
2:18Is born next time 'round on the boat sent back
2:23When the bodies starvin' at the border
2:28Are on TV givin' people the sack
2:32Oh when the sea rises to meet us
2:37Oh when there's nothin' left for you and I to do
2:41Oh when there's nobody upstairs to receive us
2:47When I have no kind words left love for you
2:57Be be be be be
3:02Be as you've always been
3:07Be be be be be
3:12Be as you've always been
3:16Lover be good to me
3:17Ah be love in its disrepute
3:21Lover be good to me
3:22Scorches the hillside and salts every root
3:25Lover be good to me
3:26And watches the slowin' and starvin' of troops
3:31And lover be good to me
3:35Lover be good to me
3:37Be there and just as you stand
3:40Lover be good to me
3:41Or be like the rose that you hold in your hand
3:44Lover be good to me
3:45That will grow bold in a barren and desolate land
3:50Oh lover be good to me
3:54Love won't you be
3:56Love won't you be
3:59Be as you've always been
4:03Love won't you be
4:06Love won't you be
4:08Be as you've always been
4:13Love won't you be
4:15Love won't you be
4:18Be as you've always been
4:22Love won't you be
4:25Love won't you be
4:27Be as you've always been
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
