Lyrics: |
Like a man comes to an altar I came into this town With the world upon my shoulders and promises passed down 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 But I found thieves and salesmen Living in my father's house I know how they got in here and I know how to get them out I?m turning this place over From floor to balcony and then just like these doves and sheep Oh, you will be set free I?ve always been a lover Before I drew a breath Some things I loved easy and some I?ll loved to death Because love's no politician It listens carefully So of those who come, I can't lose one So you will be set free But go on and take my picture Go on and make me up I?ll still be your defender You?ll be my missing son I?ll send out an army Just to bring you back to me Because regardless of your brother's lies Oh, you will be set free I am my beloved?s and my beloved?s mine So you bring all your history I?ll bring the bread and wine and we'll have us a party Where all drinks are on me Because as surely as the rising sun Oh, you will be set free |
