Langhorne Slim - Salvation lyrics

I've been looking for salvation I've been searching low and high But I'm tired of being patient All this waiting's been a waste of time It's no wonder how we got here In many ways, I wrote this script By loading all our treasures Into the belly of a sinking ship I tried to hold you but my hands were cold I meant to catch you but I moved too slow I hate to leave But it's time to go Well, our love has left us tired This love has beat us black and blue It's the child that's still in me That wants even though we're through I want to hold you but my hands were cold I meant to catch you but i moved too slow I hate to leave But it's time to go And I've been looking for salvation I've been searching low and high I forgot that it was waiting In your smile and in your eyes Down the hills and through the winding roads You hold my mind and I've lost control I never meant to fully disappear Now that you're gone it's become clear I hope to see you before hell gets cold I'm scared to leave But I know It's time to go
