Lyrics When the Spirit Slips Away - Ten Sharp

When the Spirit Slips Away

Ten Sharp
Under the Water-Line
When the Spirit Slips Away
Where lies the heart
Where lies the soul
Of all that God’s created
Rivers don’t flow
Flowers don’t grow
Is man around to waste it
Don’t ask me how
When the spirit slips away
Living on dreams
No eye for the sky
Isn’t it time to change it
And what is to come
Of the unborn child
Now it’s time to face it
Don’t ask me how
But time has come to fight
Cause it’s really over
And the fire turns into a flame
When the spirit slips away
(Yes it’s) Really over
Like a fire into a flame
When the spirit slips away
The song of the whale
Is fading away
There is still time to save it
Colors turn pale
Without a heart
For all that God’s created
When the spirit…
Don’t ask me how
But time has come to fight
