Lyrics
Slippin' 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.
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...
[ piano ]
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...
And I can feel it slippin' away...
And I can feel it slippin' away...
