[Derek Webb - Lover lyrics]

Like a man comes to an altar
I came into this town
With the world upon my shoulders
And promises passed down
And i went into the water and
My father, he was please, d
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 'em out
I'm turning this place over
From floor to balcony
And then just like these doves and
Sheep you will be set free

I've always been a lover from
Before i drew a breath
Some things i loved easy and

Some i loved to death
Because love's no politician
It listens carefully
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
And i'll send out an army just
To bring you back to me
Because regardless of your brother's lies
You will be set free

I am my beloveds and my beloved's mine
So you bring all your history and
I'll bring the bread and wine
And we'll have us a party where
All the drinks are on me
Then as surely as the rising sun
You will be set free
