Slow Turning - John Hiatt

作词：John Hiatt

作曲：John Hiatt

When I was a boy

I thought it just came to you

But I never could tell what's mine

So it didn't matter anyway

My only pride and joy

Was this racket down here

Banging on an old guitar

And singin' what I had to say

I always thought our house was haunted

Cuz nobody said boo to me

I never did get what I wanted

But now I get what I need

It's been a slow turning

From the inside out

A slow turning baby

But you come about

A slow learning

But you learn to sway ahhayhayhay

A slow turning baby

Not fade away not fade away not fade away

Now I'm in my car

Ooh I got the radio on

Now I'm yellin' at the kids in the back

Cuz they're banging like Charlie Watts

You think you've come so far

In this one horse town

Then she's laughing that crazy laugh

Cuz you haven't left the parkin' lot

Time is short and here's the damn thing about it

You're gonna die gonna die for sure

And you can learn to LIVE with love or without it

But there ain't no cure

It's just a slow turning

From the inside out

A slow turning

But you come about ya

A slow turning baby

But you learn to swayahhayhayhay

A slow turning

Not fade away not fade away not fade away

Not fade away not fade away

A slow turning a slow turning

A slow turning a slow turning
