Slip Slidin' Away |
| Slip slidin away |
| Slip slidin away |
| You know the nearer your destination |
| The more youre slip slidin away |
| I know a man |
| He came from my home town |
| He wore his passion for his woman |
| Like a thorny crown |
| He said delores |
| I live in fear |
| My love for yous so overpowering |
| Im afraid that I will disappear |
| Slip slidin away |
| Slip slidin away |
| You know the nearer your destination |
| The more youre slip slidin away |
| I know a woman |
| Became a wife |
| These are the very words she uses |
| To describe her life |
| She said a good day |
| Aint got no rain |
| She said a bad days when I lie in bed |
| And think of things that might have been |
| Slip slidin away |
| Slip slidin away |
| You know the nearer your destination |
| The more youre slip slidin away |
| And I know a fa-ther |
| Who had a son |
| He longed to tell him all the reasons |
| For the things hed done |
| He came a long way |
| Just to explain |
| He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping |
| Then he turned around and headed home again |
| Slip slidin away |
| Slip slidin away |
| You know the nearer your destination |
| The more youre slip slidin away |
| God only knows |
| God makes his plan |
| The informations unavailable |
| To the mortal man |
| We work our jobs |
| Collect our pay |
| Believe were gliding down the highway |
| When in fact were slip slidin away |
| Slip slidin away |
| Slip slidin away |
| You know the nearer your destination |
| The more youre slip slidin away |
| Slip slidin away |
| You know the nearer your destination |
| The more youre slip slidin away |
| Mmm… |
