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
