[00:04.55]I asked my father
[00:06.84]I said, father change my name
[00:10.23]
[00:12.59]The one I’m using now it’s covered up
[00:15.94]With fear and filth and cowardice and shame
[00:19.33]
[00:22.31]Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me
[00:27.78]
[00:30.29]Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me
[00:36.75]
[00:39.65]He said, I locked you in this body
[00:42.72]I meant it as a kind of trial
[00:45.56]
[00:48.12]You can use it for a weapon
[00:51.14]Or to make some woman smile…
[00:54.53]
[00:56.78]Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me
[01:04.64]Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me
[01:11.10]
[01:13.98]Then let me start again, I cried
[01:16.85]Please let me start again
[01:19.97]
[01:22.44]I want a face that’s fair this time
[01:25.49]I want a spirit that is calm
[01:28.61]
[01:31.19]Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me
[01:37.39]
[01:39.75]Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me
[01:48.24]I never never turned aside, he said
[01:51.31]I never walked away
[01:56.13]It was you who built the temple
[01:59.26]It was you who covered up my face
[02:02.65]
[02:05.65]Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me
[02:13.65]Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me
[02:19.94]
[02:22.40]And may the spirit of this song
[02:25.76]May it rise up pure and free
[02:28.87]
[02:31.00]May it be a shield for you
[02:34.29]A shield against the enemy…
[02:39.47]Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me
[02:45.37]
[02:47.58]Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me
[02:55.77]Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me
[03:01.43]
[03:03.82]Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me
