Slippin' Away

And now you seem so far away
When only yesterday I thought that we were getting closer
It's like I'm hangin' on a line
Hopin' you'll take time enough to notice
That we both could understand

Do you want to live alone
Lookin' past the places where
A seed of love could grow and the future could be lastin' love

But you just keep slippin' away
Why you wanna keep on slippin' away?
Oh, somewhere in you heart, I know
You will see that I am on your side
I am on your side

I can't believe it takes so long
'Cause something that's so strong can surely take away the weakness
Maybe I haven't made it clear
But day after day and year by year, I'll keep sayin'

When my imagination's gone, there's a warm reality
That helps me make the space between us so much closer

And you won't keep slippin' away
You ain't gonna keep on slippin' away
Somewhere in your mind, I know
You will see that I am on your side
I am on your side

(Don't) don't keep slippin' away
Don't keep slippin' away, away

When my imagination's gone, there's a warm reality
That helps me make the space between us so much closer

And you won't keep slippin' away
I won't let you keep on slippin' away
Somewhere in your mind, I know
You will see that I am on your side

And I'm never gonna let you slippin' away
I won't let you keep on slippin' away
Somewhere in your mind, I know
You will see that I am on your side

And you won't keep on slippin' away
I won't let you
I won't let you
I won't let you
Turn around and go
I won't let, please stay
