Lyrics
Mm, mm, hey Mm, mm, hey Five fifty-two on the back porch step Grocery-store cake and one pink candle left Six months of mornings with a clear, cold head She's eight years old and still asleep in her bed I know what they say, I know what I've done But I'm still sitting here waiting on the sun Slow sunrise, come and find me Slow sunrise, leave the light behind me I'm not asking for a miracle, just a little more time Slow sunrise, slow sunrise, shine Ooh, ooh Her little boots are lined up by the door Last year's ribbon on the kitchen floor Aunt Ruth called and she said it plain "Don't you promise that child a thing" Well, I'm not promising, Ruth, I'm just here again I know what they say, I know what I've done But I'm still sitting here waiting on the sun Slow sunrise, come and find me Slow sunrise, leave the light behind me I'm not asking for a miracle, just a little more time Slow sunrise, slow sunrise, shine Ooh, ooh Down on my knees on the cold wood boards Matches shaking in my hands, Lord If she comes down the stairs and she still says Daddy Then I'll know I'm not too late Slow sunrise, slow sunrise, come and find me Slow sunrise, slow sunrise, back, back, behind me Not a miracle, just a little more time Slow sunrise, slow sunrise, shine Ooh, ooh Light the candle, here she comes Come up slow on me one more time
