Monday's promise is Tuesday's lie Saturday's party is Sunday's fight Somethin's wrong with you and I Love's gone wrong that used to be right And I can feel it slippin' away Slowly, slowly slippin' away It'll be gone in a few more days If we don't stop this love of ours From slippin' away Wednesday's kisses are Thursday's frowns We can't live two days in a row When our world's not upside down Here we stand watchin' it go And I can feel it slippin' away Slowly, slowly slippin' away It'll be gone in a few more days If we don't stop this love of ours From slippin' away Roses are red, violets are blue Sugar is sweet some of the time This puzzle's missin' a piece or two We've got the grapes but never the wine And I can feel it slippin' away Slowly, slowly slippin' away It'll be gone in a few more days If we don't stop this love of ours From slippin' away And I can feel it slippin' away Slowly, slowly slippin' away It'll be gone in a few more days If we don't stop this love of ours From slippin' away And I can feel it slippin' away Slowly, slowly slippin' away It'll be gone in a few more days If we don't stop this love of ours From slippin' away
