'Cause it only breaks my heart To see you going to this To see you going to this When there's nothing that I can do And it only breaks my heart You don't have 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 To think we almost made it Well, girl, we almost made it You know as well as I And I take you in my arms And pull you close to me But every time I try '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 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 everyday 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 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
