Lyrics
Bethlehem
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
So, you've left it all behind you
For a love is only as you see it
Though so many do confide in you
It seems you are the one that confides most
But you sin as you wish
Because I'm in Bethlehem
I've got a seat in heaven
And though I'm heaven sent
I can do as I want and you don't have the right to choose
Codes, you follow codes and break them
For a love is only what does suit you most
Hope, I hope and pray for love to reign
For love is what I give through my own codes
But you sin as you wish
Because I'm in Bethlehem
I've got a seat in heaven
And though I'm heaven sent
I can do as I want and you don't have the right to choose
Because I'm in Bethlehem
I've got a seat in heaven
And though I'm heaven sent
I can do as I want
I'm in Bethlehem
I've got a seat in heaven
And though I'm heaven sent
I can do as I want
