Slip Slidin' Away - Live at Central Park, New York, NY - September 19, 1981
Slip sliding away
Slip sliding away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip sliding away
Whoa, and I know a man, he came from my home town
He wore his passion for his woman like a thorny crown
He said, "Dolores, I live in fear
My love for you is so overpowering
I'm afraid that I will disappear"
Slip sliding away
Slip sliding away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip sliding away
I know a woman became a wife
These are the very words she uses to describe her life
She said, "A good day ain't got not rain"
She said, "A bad day's when I lie in bed
And I think of things that might have been"
Slip sliding away
Slip sliding away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip sliding away
And I know a father who had a son
He longed to tell him all the reasons for the things he'd done
He came a long way just to explain
He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping
Then he turned around and he headed home again
Slip sliding away
Slip sliding away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip sliding away
Whoa, God only knows, God makes his plan
The information's unavailable to the mortal man
We're working our jobs, collect our pay
Believe we're gliding down the highway
When in fact we're slip sliding away
Slip sliding away
Slip sliding away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip sliding away
Slip sliding away
Slip sliding away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip sliding away
Alright!
Slip sliding away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip sliding away
Whoa, and I know a man, he came from my home town
He wore his passion for his woman like a thorny crown
He said, "Dolores, I live in fear
My love for you is so overpowering
I'm afraid that I will disappear"
Slip sliding away
Slip sliding away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip sliding away
I know a woman became a wife
These are the very words she uses to describe her life
She said, "A good day ain't got not rain"
She said, "A bad day's when I lie in bed
And I think of things that might have been"
Slip sliding away
Slip sliding away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip sliding away
And I know a father who had a son
He longed to tell him all the reasons for the things he'd done
He came a long way just to explain
He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping
Then he turned around and he headed home again
Slip sliding away
Slip sliding away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip sliding away
Whoa, God only knows, God makes his plan
The information's unavailable to the mortal man
We're working our jobs, collect our pay
Believe we're gliding down the highway
When in fact we're slip sliding away
Slip sliding away
Slip sliding away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip sliding away
Slip sliding away
Slip sliding away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip sliding away
Alright!
