Lover Lyrics

Like a man comes to an alter I came into this town
With the world upon my shoulders and promises passed down
And I went into the water and my father, he was pleased
I built it and i'€™ll tear it down so you will be set free

But I found thieves and salesmen living in my father'€™s house
I know how they got in here and I know how to get '€˜em out
I'€™m turning this place over from floor to balcony
And then just like these doves and sheep you will be set free

I'€™ve always been a lover from before I drew a breath
Some things I loved easy and some I loved to death
Because love'€™s no politician, it listens carefully
Of those who come I can'€™t lose one, so you will be set free

But go on and take my picture, go on and make me up
I'€™ll still be your defender, you'€™ll be my missing son
And i'€™ll send out an army just to bring you back to me
Because regardless of your brother'€™s lies you will be set free

I am my beloveds and my beloved'€™s mine
So you bring all your history and i'€™ll bring the bread and wine
And we'€™ll have us a party where all the drinks are on me
Then as surely as the rising sun you will be set free
