I asked my father

I said, Father change my name

The one I'm using now it's covered up

With fear and filth and cowardice and shame

Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover

Lover, lover, lover come back to me

Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover

Lover, lover, lover come back to me

He said, I locked you in this body

I meant it as a kind of trial

You can use it for a weapon

Or to make some woman smile

Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover

Lover, lover, lover come back to me

Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover

Lover, lover, lover come back to me

Then let me start again, I cried

Please let me start again

I want a face that's fair this time

I want a spirit that is calm

Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover

Lover, lover, lover come back to me

Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover

Lover, lover, lover come back to me

I never never turned aside, he said

I never walked away

It was you who built the temple

It was you who covered up my face

Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover

Lover, lover, lover come back to me

Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover

Lover, lover, lover come back to me

And may the spirit of this song

May it rise up pure and free

May it be a shield for you

A shield against the enemy

Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover

Lover, lover, lover come back to me

Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover

Lover, lover, lover come back to me

Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover

Lover, lover, lover come back to me

Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover

Lover, lover, lover come back to me
