Slide 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.

Are you gonna wake again?

Are you gonna take it down?

Oh babe, I don't wanna deal it

Oh, make it alright

Gime some, my love

Away, away, away

I just wanna slide away and come alive again

I just wanna slide away and come alive again

I will see that love again, and find a life again

I just wanna slide away and come alive again

I wanted to let it go

Just couldn't let it go

I wanted to let it go

Just couldn't let you go

I would catch you

(Just couldn't let you go)

I'd catch you as you fall

(Just couldn't let it go)

I would catch you

(Just couldn't let you go)

I'd catch you if I heard your call

But you tore a hole in space

Like a dark star, falls from grace

You burn across the sky

And I would find you wings to fly

And I would catch you

I would catch your fall

I just wanna slide away and come alive again

I just wanna slide away and come alive again

I will see that love again, and find a life again

I just wanna slide away and come alive again
