Learning to Crawl is the first track of Mr. Mister’s Pull. On bootleg copies, the alternate title was “Ever Slowly”, which was also temporarily named by the band themselves when they noticed the current title was also a song by the Pretenders from the album of the same name.
Sunrise, see a figure in the sand
New life, neither animal or man
Slowly, the shape begins to change
Slowly to a spirit and a name
Born, a flashing of light
Astride of the grave
And the rest is learning to crawl
Cold night, hear the wind across the fields
I sleep but my mind is never still
Vision of a face the darkness hides
Fading from my momentary sight
Born, a flashing of light
Astride of the grave
And the rest is learning to crawl
Born, a flashing of light
Astride of the grave
And the rest is learning to crawl
I see the sunrise
I see the new life
It changes slowly
Ever slowly
Ever slowly...
Learning to Crawl was written by Steve George & John Lang & Pat Mastelotto & Richard Page.
