Slip slidin' away Slip slidin' away You know the nearer your destination The more you're slip slidin' away I know a man He came from my hometown He wore his passion for his woman Like a thorny crown He said "Delores, I live in fear My love for you's overpowering I'm afraid that I will disappear" Slip slidin' away Slip slidin' away You know the nearer your destination The more you're slip slidin' away I know a woman Became a wife These are the very words she uses To describe her life She said, "A good day ain't got no rain" She said, "A bad day's when I lie in bed And think of the things that might have been" Slip slidin' away Slip slidin' away You know the nearer your destination The more you're slip slidin' away. And I know a father who had a son He longed to tell him all the reasons For the things he'd done He came a long way just to explain He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping Then he turned around and headed home again He's slip slidin' away Slip slidin' away You know the nearer your destination The more you're slip slidin' away God only knows God makes his plan The information's unavailable To the mortal man We work our jobs And we collect our pay Believe we're gliding down the highway When in fact we're slip slidin' away Slip slidin' away Slip slidin' away You know the nearer your destination The more you're slip slidin' away Slip slidin' away Slip slidin' away You know the nearer your destination The more you're slip slidin' away Mm, mm, mm, mm, mm, mm
