Song language: English
Be |
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? |
