When all the worst we fear lets fall its weightWhen the gyre widens on a window, wave breaksWhen St. Peter loses cool and bars the gatesWhen Atlas acts a nag and makes his arms shakeWhen the birds are heard again in their singin'Once atrocity is hoarse from voicin shameAnd when the earth is trembling on some new beginnin'With the same sweet shock of when Adam first cameBe as you've always beenBe as youve always beenBe as you've always beenBe like the love that discovered the sinThat freed the first man, would do so againAnd, lover, be good to meBe that hopeful feeling when Eden was lostIt's been deaf to our laughter since the master was crossedWhich side of the war will suffer that cost?Oh, lover, be good to meWhen the man who gives the orderIs born next time 'round on the boat sent backWhen the body's starvin' at the boarderOr on Tv givin' people the sackLove, when the sea rises to meet usOh, when there's nothin left for you and I to doOh, when theres nobody upstairs to receive usWhen I have no kind words left, love, for youBe as you've always beenBe as youve always beenBe love in its disreputeScorches the hillside and salts every rootAnd watches the slowin' and starvin' of troopsAnd, lover, be good to meBe there and you stare as you standOr be like the rose that you hold in your handI will grow bold in a battered and desolate landOh, lover, be good to meLove, won't you beLove, wont you beBe as you've always been?Love, won't you beLove, won't you beBe as you've always been?Love, won't you beLove, won't you beBe as you've always been?Love, won't you beLove, won't you beBe as you've always been?

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 a nag 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
Be as you've always been
Be as youve always been
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 war will suffer 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 body's starvin' at the boarder
Or on Tv givin' people the sack
Love, when the sea rises to meet us
Oh, when there's nothin left for you and I to do
Oh, when theres nobody upstairs to receive us
When I have no kind words left, love, for you
Be as you've always been
Be as youve always been
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
Love, won't you be
Love, wont 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?
