Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Guess it's just another dream
That's slippin' away
Each time that I fall asleep
It seems it's driftin' away
[Verse 2]
Just as you have touched my heart
Babe, I wake and we're apart, yeah
And it's slippin' away
[Verse 3]
Here comes another day
That's driftin' away
Every time I draw a breath
It's dyin' away
[Verse 4]
First the sun and then the moon (Slippin')
One of them will be 'round soon
(Slippin' away)
(Slippin' away) Slipping
Ooh, yeah
[Verse 5]
It's all driftin' way
It's slippin'
Slippin' away
[Verse 6]
Just as you have touched my heart (Slippin')
I wake up, babe, and we're apart, yeah
Seems we're (Slippin' away)
(Slippin' away) Yeah
(Slippin' away)
[Verse 7]
All I want is ecstasy
But I ain't getting much
Just getting off on misery
It seems I lost my touch
[Verse 8]
Well, it's just another song
But it's slippin' away
Well, we didn't sing it long
'Cause it's fadin' away
[Verse 9]
Just the sun and then the moon (Slippin')
One of them will be 'round soon
And then we're (Slippin' away)
(Slippin' away)
(Slippin' away) Slipping
[Verse 10]
Slippin' away
Slippin' away
Slippin' away
Slippin' away
Slippin' away (I'm leavin')
Slippin' away
[Verse 11]
(Slippin' away) I just can't keep a hold of me, yeah
(Slippin' away) Drifting
(Slippin' away) I'll be away
(Slippin' away) Slippin' away
Just (Slippin' away)
Don't think you gotta add it up
(Slippin' away) Ooh, then it
(Slippin' away) Gonna see if I didn't disappear, baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Slippin' away) Ooh, ooh-ooh
