Intro

Verse 1

Everything goes slipping away,

in your eyes, I see the day

everything begins to fade

what you say, slipping, slipping,

away

Chorus

somebody take my hand,

and make me understand,

Here in the light of day,

everything slips away

Verse2

Everything goes slipping away,

hard to find, the words to say

everything begins to fade

you give and then, you take it

away,

Pre Chorus

Everything goes slipping away,

higher and higher, closer each day,

in my hands, time and again,

Everything Slipping, slipping away,
