Lover Down Slow

Ever the light that don't shine on me
Ever the grace above I'll go home
A helpless victim of your company
And all the scars you'll never show
Tell me baby, is it hard to recognize the simple song inside your heart
All the heathen hands, you're so quick to criticize
Oh, they're tearing you apart

All around there is suspicion knocking at your door
(Oh, knocking on that door, baby)
A certified condition now, baby
Let your lover down slow
Nothing she don't already know
Let your lover down slow

Same old story, still as hard to find a reason
You played the best of you away
So sure to find that you're just another season
How soon the summer blows away

All around there is suspicion knocking at your door
(Oh, you're knocking on that door, baby)
A certified condition now, oh, you're so cold
Let your lover down slow
Nothing she don't already know
Let your lover down slow

Let your lover down
Let your lover down slow
Nothing she don't already know
Let your lover down slow
Let her down, let her down
Let her down, let her down slow
She already knows
She already knows
She already knows
Now let your lover down slow
