You always said you're gonna be someone

You're always fightin' but you still haven't won

Your luggage stands in the blue foyer

You're getting older and you never used to feel this way

I gave you water till the well ran dry

But there was something about the way you said goodbye

We didn't speak for so long

And I wish that I was wrong

But I can feel it slipping away

And I never thought I'd be crying this way

But I can feel it in my bones

I see the crack in the cornerstone

And I can feel it slipping away

I noticed you've been neglecting your health

A mere shadow of your former self

You're full of guilt over something you've done

But what's to stop you reaching out just to touch someone?

I'll wait and see what the mailman brings

I'll blow the dust from the phone that never rings

And I know that there's something in the air

I could swear

I can feel it slipping away

But I never thought I'd be crying this way

And I can feel it in my bones

I see the crack in the cornerstone

And I can feel it slipping away

I'll wait and see what the mailman brings

I'll blow the dust from the phone that never rings

And I know that there's something in the air

I could swear

I can feel it slipping away

And I never thought I'd be crying this way

But I can feel it in my bones

I see the crack in the cornerstone

And I can feel it slipping away

I can feel it slipping away

I can feel it slipping away

I can feel it slipping away

I can feel it slipping away

I can feel it slipping away
