Slow Turning Lyrics - Terms Of My Surrender - 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 

But you come about

A slow learning 

But you learn to sway-ah-hay-hay-hay 

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 sway-ah-hay-hay-hay 

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
