Lyrics:
by slipping away, yeah
And the ache that's making me ache has gone for the day
Now I'm the man that shot the boss
I pinned him down and blew his
to be there, I wanted to go
You gave me no warning
You gave no reason
But I was with you
Right by your side
Just give me the strength, and I will
a mess on your leather couch
And you’re feeling mad, like a mean old grouch
Baby don’t you be no fool, just fuggetabout it
When your mother-in-law wants
flags up, yes sir
You a burr that don't mean you dress fly
A lot of people hittin' on me, mad to see me on
You grouch, Oscar, Academy Award
I can play
no use to my self once when I'm dead
And though I trusted I was lied to by my own
I bare no grouch and I carry no milestone
Look at me now I am
Slipping on by, slipping on by
Slipping on by, slipping on by
Slipping on by, slipping on by
Slipping on by, slipping on by
I remember when I thought
days
Have passed away
A thousand days
Were captured in her eyes
Forever we've been
Trapped by our hearts
Trapped by our minds
I'd like to leave
to be there, I wanted to go
You gave me no warning
You gave no reason
But I was with you
Right by your side
Just give me the strength, and I will
Down by the water out in the wood
You make it better
You make it good
In the sugar shack
Slipping through the cracks
It will always bring you back
Slipping by, don't bother me, I won't bother you.
If you let me I'll sleep the while, let you do the things you need to.
Steeping high, my heart,
to be there, I wanted to go
You gave me no warning
You gave no reason
But I was with you
Right by your side
Just give me the strength, and I will
signals distorted by time
And I'm stuck here waiting for the stars to align
Dancing right in front of me, all the lives I once could see
Slipping
away
Time (slipping by)
Time (slipping by)
Time (slipping by)
Time (slipping by)
Time (slipping by)
Slipping by
Slipping by
Slipping by
I don't know
As you're slipping down the wall
And you're headed for a fall
As you're slipping down the wall
Why do they kick you when you're down?
Why do they
Talking too fast
When I (see) my face back there you are
Wondering why
Might not be so
And I can't see your eyes
Days passed me by
Blood is
Like an empty bottle washed up by the waves
Like an old schooner slipping slowly to it's grave
Like ghosts of old sailors caught somewhere in time
Places to be, people to see
Can't shake the feeling
That something is slipping my mind
something is slipping my mind
An echo of love rings in my
you for a while.
I've been slipping into desperation;
You're the only salvation that the Lord designed.
Your absence is controlling my defenses.
My
Maybe they come by land
Maybe they come by sea
Maybe they've already come
Maybe they come by me
Slipping into the twilight
I ride the broken
the dreams we always had
Oh, the songs to sing
When we at last return again
Slipping off a glancing kiss
To those who claim they know
Below the streets
Consumed with memories that preceded today
Given a chance to bereave life that's slipping away
Suffered through tragedy of my slow decay
can’t numb my brain
By getting drunk
This won’t stop the pain
Nobody knows that I am so lost
I feel my body giving up
Don’t know if I can hold on
I’m
hurt a fool
Well, don't even try
Because genuine fools
Don't play by the rules
And she
Won't reconsider
Whoa, oh, oh, you can't hurt a fool
remember, we were sitting there, by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
You are
