Текст (слова) песни: Over The Rhine - All I Need Is Everything

 
Slow down. Hold still. 
It`s not as if it`s a matter of will. 
Someone`s circling. Someone`s moving 
a little lower than the angels. 
And it`s got nothing to do with me. 
The wind blows through the trees, 
but if I look for it, it won`t come. 
I tense up. My mind goes numb. 
There`s nothing harder than learning how to receive. 
 
Calm down. Be still. 
We`ve got plenty of time to kill. 
No hand writing on the wall: 
just the voice that`s in us all. 
And you`re whispering to me, 
time to get up off my hands and knees, 
`cause if I beg for it, it won`t come. 
I find nothing but table crumbs. 
My hands are empty. God I`ve been naive. 
 
All I need is everything. 
Inside, outside, feel new skin. 
All I need is everything. 
Feel the slip and the grip of grace again. 
 
Slow down. Hold still. 
It`s not as if it`s a matter of will. 
Someone`s circling. Someone`s moving 
a little lower than the angels. 
This voice calling me to you: 
it`s just barely coming through. 
Still, I clearly hear my name. 
I`ve been fingering the flame 
like tomorrow`s martyr. 
It gets harder to believe. 
 
All I need is everything. 
Inside, outside, feel new skin. 
All I need is everything. 
Feel the slip and the grip of grace again. 
 
So from now till kingdom come, 
taste the words on the tip of my tongue. 
`Cause we can`t run truth out of town, 
only force it underground. 
The roots grow deeper 
in ways we can`t conceive. 
 
All I need is everything. 
Inside, outside feel new skin. 
All I need is everything. 
Feel the slip and the grip of grace again. 
 
All I need is all I need.
