Be lyrics

[Verse 1]

When all the worst we fear lets fall its weight

When the gyre widens on a window, wave breaks

When St. Peter loses cool and bars the gates

When Atlas acts the maggot and 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

[Pre-Chorus]

Be, be, be, be, be

Be as you've always been

Be, be, be, be, be

Be as you’ve always been

[Chorus 1]

Be as you've always been

Be like the love that discovered the sin

That freed the first man, would do so again

And, lover, be good to me

Be that hopeful feeling when Eden was lost

It's been deaf to our laughter since the master was crossed

Which side of the wall will suffer that cost?

Oh, lover, be good to me

[Verse 2]

When the man who gives the order

Is born next time 'round on the boat sent back

When the bodies starvin' at the border

Or 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

[Pre-Chorus]

Be, be, be, be, be

Be as you’ve always been

Be, be, be, be, be

Be as you've always been

[Chorus 2]

Be love in its disrepute

Scorches the hillside and salts every root

And watches the slowin’ and starvin' of troops

And, lover, be good to me

Be there and you stare as you stand

Or be like the rose that you hold in your hand

I will grow bold in a battered and desolate land

Oh, lover, be good to me

[Outro]

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?
