Slower Dear Lyrics
I've been makin' money at the grocery store
So I can buy you somethin' nice when you
Get back from the war
You know it's true
I think about you every day
When I go to bed at night
Well I hope that you're okay
But the night's like a train;
Filled up with ghosts
Sing your song while the check out hosts
Dances with the loose carts in the
Parking lot
Give everything I've got
If you just kiss my face
Make my black eyes burn
A fool like me will never learn
Speak the words I long to hear
Speak them slow and clear:
I love you
In the meadow, the tiger spots the gray gazelle
And the next thing you know, everything goes to hell
Like my mind when I see you in the chapel light
Try as I may, try as I might
This thing comes and takes over me
Like the night upon the sea
Like thunder crashing down from above
Like love, like love

The wise man knows what a wise man's worth
In the future giants will walk the earth
But you and I won't see it, though
We'll be somewhere in a land below
With lace and feathers and grass so green
Softer than what's in between our skin
When the sun has left the sky
When I fall into your eyes
Kiss my face
Make my black eyes burn
A fool like me will never learn
Speak the words I long to hear
Speak them slow and clear:
I love you
