derek webb - lover lyrics
like a man comes to an altar,
i came into this town,
with the world upon my shoulders
and promises p-ssed down.
when i went into the water,
my father, he was pleased.
i built it and i’ll tear it down
so you will be set free.
yes, and i found thieves and salesmen
living in my father’s house.
and i know how they got in here,
and i know how to get ’em out.
well, i’m turning this place over
from floor to balcony.
then, just like these doves and sheep
oh, you will be set free.
’cause i have always been a lover
from before i drew a breath
oh, and somethings i love easy
and some i love to death.
you see, love’s no politician
’cause it listens carefully
so from those who come,
i can’t lose one,
so you will be set free,
oh, you will be set free.
go on and take my picture
go on and make me up
oh, i’ll still be your defender
and you’ll be my missing son
and i’ll send out an army
just to bring you back to me.
’cause regardless of your brothers’ lies,
oh, you will be set free.
because i am my beloved’s
and my beloved’s mine;
so, you bring all your history,
i’ll bring the bread and wine.
then we’ll have us a party
where all the drinks are on me
and as surely as the rising sun
oh, you will be set free,
oh, you will be set free.
