Slipping Away - 1996
Lyrics
So far, so far You're slipping away, away You're slipping away from the life and the love we made Baby, I'm so afraid So far, so far, so far (oh yeah) You're slipping away, away You're slipping right out of my grasp When you're fading fast it seems You know you're slipping away from me I keep on reaching and I I keep on trying But you never even hold me And it seems like you don't know me, baby I keep on yearning and I I guess I'm learning That it's just a losing fight 'Cause there's no passion in your eyes So far, so far (no, no, no, baby) You're slipping away, away Slipping away from the life and the love we made Baby, I'm so afraid So far, so far, so far You're slipping away, away Slipping right out of my grasp When you're fading fast it seems You know you're slipping away from me I keep denying that our Our love is dying But it's all a big charade And it's a fruitless game to play I can't remember when you You last were tender And it's always touch and go The silence chills me to the bone So far, so far (yeah) You're slipping away, away You're slipping away from the life and the love we made Baby, I'm so afraid So far, so far, so far (yeah) You're slipping away, away Slipping right out of my grasp When you're fading fast it seems You know you're slipping away from me ♪ Further, further ♪ You're so far Time after time I reach for you Try and I try but you're so aloof Where is the boy that you used to be? Baby, you're slipping away from me (you're so far) Time after time I reach for you Try and I try but you're so aloof Where is the boy that you used to be? Baby, you're slipping away from me You're so far (so far, so far) You're slipping away, away Slipping away from what we had Truly, I just don't understand So far, so far, so far You're slipping away, away You're slipping right out of my grasp When you're fading so fast it seems You know you're slipping away Time after time I reach for you Try and I try but you're so aloof Where is the boy that you used to be? Baby, you're slipping away from me Time after time I reach for you Try and I try but you're so aloof Where is the boy that you used to be? Baby, you're slipping away from me Time after time I reach for you Try and I try but you're so aloof (so afraid) Where is the boy that you used to be? Baby, you're slipping away from me (yeah) Time after time I reach for you Try and I try but you're so aloof (so far) Where is the boy that you used to be? (So far) Baby, you're slipping away from me...
