Slow Giving – Daniel Lanois – letras

Slow giving, slow comingSlow giving, slow comingJoy giving, joy comingLove giving, love comingAngel, I’ve seen you in the rocket speedI’ve seen you in the ground that feedsMy angel, with me you’ve crawled through the trenchesForever scaling my defensesI need you now in my rebel mindPlease lock the door and hang a signMy heart is open wide but the bleeding’s hard to stopExplain to me what is and what is not, what is, what is, what isSlow giving, slow comingSlow giving, slow comingJoy giving, joy comingLove giving, love comingAngel, until the beast in me forever burnsIt’s hard to know which way to turnOn the guard rail of your 25 yearsI feel the piercing ember of every tearOn a desert plane, on my knees, broken and ragged saying please baby please baby pleaseOh angel I’ve lost so many timesPlease, please show me a signOn a pretty lipOn a broken grip, don’t let me bring the roof downLet me build my spirit soundI’m standing right back where I started, please let me stay open heartedOh angel, my sweet angel, angel
