Lyrics
Slipping Away
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The night falls heavy on my body
Whenever I watch you lying next to me
Feels like you've gone somewhere without me
Lost in a world of dreams where
I can never be
The whispers of a secret lover
Calling you over to the other side
Another waiting in the shadows
Until the morning breaks the spell of night
I feel you slipping away
I feel you slipping away
I'd really like you to stay
I feel you slipping away
So far away
The things we never tell each other
All the words unsaid when we're together
I wish you knew what I was thinking
I lie here hoping as you keep on dreaming
I feel you slipping away
I feel you slipping away
I'd really like you to stay
I feel you slipping away
Why can't you?
Why can't you stay?
