Be, be as you've always been 
 Be like the love that discovered the sin 
 That freed the first man and will do so again 
 And, lover, be good to me 
 Be that hope when Eden was lost 
 It's been deaf to our laughter since the master was crossed 
 Which side of the wall really suffers that cost? 
 And, lover, be good to me 
    Be as you've always been 
 Be as you've always been   
 Be, be as you've always been 
 True to the time and the placе you've been given 
 Your heart in thе world, and a world there within 
 And, lover, be good to me 
 Be there and just as you stand 
 Or be like the rose that you'd hold in your hand 
 That grows bold in a barren and an uneasy land 
 And, lover, be good to me   
 And, be as you've always been 
 Be as you've always been 
 Be as you've always been 
 Be as you've always been
