When all the worst we fear lifts all its weight When the gyre widens on and when the wave breaks When St. Peter loses cool and bars the Gates When Atlas acts so mad it makes his arms shake When the birds are heard again and they're singing Once atrocity is hoarse from voicing 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 as you've always been 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 sin (lover, be good to me) But 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) That's been deaf to our laughter since the master was crossed (lover, be good to me) Which side of the war will suffer that cost? Oh lover, be good to me
When the man who gives the order Is born next time around on the boat sent back When the bodies starvin' at the border Are on TV giving people the sack Lord, when the sea rises to meet us Oh and there's nothing 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 now
Be, be, be, be Be as you've always been Be, be, be, be Be as you've always been (lover, be good to me)
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 slowing and starving of troops And lover, be good to me (lover, be good to me) Be there, in your stairs you stay (lover, be good to me) 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 (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?
