'Cause it only breaks my heart,
to see you goin through this
to see you goin through this
and there's nothing that I can do
and it only breaks my heart,
you don't havta do this
I'v got nothing to hold on to

'Cause you keep slipping away,
a little bit more everyday now
feels like I'm running in place
You keep slipping away away
Just when I get you alone it
feels like I'm on my own like
The tears running down on your face
You keep slipping away away,
You keep slipping away

And it only makes me sad
I think we almost made it,
girl we almost made it
You know as well as I and
I take you in my arms,
pull you close to me but
Every time I try
You keep slipping away
a little bit more every day now
feels like I'm running in place
You keep slipping away away,
just when I get you alone it

Feels like I'm on my own like
the tears running down on your face
You keep slipping away away,
you keep slipping away

Should I give up? should I let go?
My mind says yes but my heart says no,
My heart says no, my heart says no

'Cause you keep slipping away,
A little bit more every day now
feels like I'm running in place
You keep slipping away away,
cause you keep slipping Away (oooh you you)

'Cause you keep slipping away,
A little bit more every day now
feels like I'm running in place
You keep slipping away away
Just when I get you alone,

Feels like I'm on my own like
the tears running down on your face
You keep slipping away away
You keep slipping away (you keep slipping away)
