Before time Before knowing Not yet walking Not yet growing All was calm I knew no want Captured only by a single thought "Hey Lover" After I cried And lost my brother After the silence taught me loneliness An ancient pain has made me shudder And still I long to hear it once again: "Hey Lover, Hey Lover" Before regret Before mistakes Before the bitter toll that breathing takes I was alive But now I'm dying I gather bruises from the trying Oh I miss our union I miss our union Hey Lover Hey Lover Hey Lover Let there be no other After the game After technique I find my way a thousand kisses deep Back to the door The ancient gates I stumble through to Whom my soul awaits Only the hear Sung loud and clear At my returning The old reprise: "Hey Lover"
