- Slipping Away LyricsGuess it's just another dream
That's slipping away
Each time that I fall asleep
It seems Im just drifting away
Just as you have touched my heart
Babe I wake up and were apart, yeah
And it's slipping away
Here comes just another day
That's drifting away
Every time I draw a breath
Its dying away
First the sun and then the moon
One of them will be around soon
Slipping away
Slipping away
Drifting away
Slipping away
Just as you have touched my heart
I wake up babe and were apart
It seems were slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away
All I want is ecstacy
But I aint getting much
Just getting off on misery
It seems Ive lost my touch
Well it's just another song
But it's slipping away
Well we didn't sing it long
Cos it's fading away
First the sun and then the moon
One of them will be round soon
Slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away
That's slipping away
Each time that I fall asleep
It seems Im just drifting away
Just as you have touched my heart
Babe I wake up and were apart, yeah
And it's slipping away
Here comes just another day
That's drifting away
Every time I draw a breath
Its dying away
First the sun and then the moon
One of them will be around soon
Slipping away
Slipping away
Drifting away
Slipping away
Just as you have touched my heart
It seems were slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away
All I want is ecstacy
But I aint getting much
Just getting off on misery
It seems Ive lost my touch
Well it's just another song
But it's slipping away
Well we didn't sing it long
Cos it's fading away
First the sun and then the moon
One of them will be round soon
Slipping away
Slipping away
