Slide Away

Once upon a time, it was paradise

Once upon a time, I was paralyzed

Think I'm gonna miss these harbour lights

But it's time to let it go

Once upon a time, it was made for us

Woke up one day, it had turned to dust

Baby, we were found, but now we're lost

So it's time to let it go

I want my house in the hills

Don't want the whiskey and pills

I don't give up easily

But I don't think I'm down

So won't you slide away

Back to the ocean

I'll go back to the city lights

So won't you slide away

Back to the ocean

La-la-la, you'll slide away

So won't you slide away

Back to the ocean

I'll go back to the city lights

So won't you slide away

Back to the ocean

La-la-la, you'll slide away

Once upon a time, it was paradise

Once upon a time, I was paralyzed

Think I'm gonna miss these harbour lights

But it's time to let it go

Once upon a time, it was made for us

Woke up one day, it had turned to dust

Baby, we were found but now we're lost

So it's time to let it go

Move on, we're not seventeen

I'm not who I used to be

You say that everything changed

You're right, we're grown now

So won't you slide away

Back to the ocean

I'll go back to the city lights

So won't you slide away

Back to the ocean

La-la-la, you'll slide away

So won't you slide away

Back to the ocean

I'll go back to the city lights

So won't you slide away

Back to the ocean

La-la-la, you'll slide away

Move on we're not seventeen

I'm not who I used to be

You say that everything changed

You're right, we're grown now
