Lover Lover Lover ((French Version: Lover Lover Lover (Graeme Allwright) - 1975)) Composer(s): Leonard Cohen First release by: Leonard Cohen - 1974
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
