Lover, Lover, Lover Lyrics
(Leonard Cohen cover)
I asked my father
I said, "Father change my name
The one I'm using now is covered up
With fear and filth and cowardice and shame"
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 as a weapon
Or to make some woman smile"
Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me...
"Then let me start again," I cried
"Let me start again
I want a face that's fair this time
I want a spirit that is calm
Like the spirit of this song
May it rise up pure and free
Let it be a shield for you
A shield against the enemy"
Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me...
I said, "Father change my name
The one I'm using now is covered up
With fear and filth and cowardice and shame"
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 as a weapon
Or to make some woman smile"
Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me...
"Then let me start again," I cried
"Let me start again
I want a face that's fair this time
I want a spirit that is calm
Like the spirit of this song
May it rise up pure and free
Let it be a shield for you
A shield against the enemy"
Yes and lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover, lover come back to me...
