'Cause it only breaks my heart
To see you going through this
To see you going through this
And there's nothing that I can do.

And it only breaks my heart
You don't have to do this
I've 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 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.

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 (oh 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).
