The Slide - Cowboy Junkies

Jesus, sweet Jesus if you’re listening

Can you pass me to your pa.

I’m having a hard time understanding

Why he’s so cruel and demanding

With his love.

Darling, sweet darling keep whispering

I’ll find you through this din.

Sitting and watching,

Two flames busy dancing

To our love.

Grab on to this moment, inhale it And hold it inside.

Savour its sweetness,

Yearn for the slide.

Jesus, sweet Jesus if you’re listening

Can you pass me to your pa.

I’m having a hard time understanding

Why he’s so discriminating

With his love.
