They say the first one to love, gets the first one to leave And you're gone baby, so what does that mean? Your love slipped through my hands I'm in love, I thought I could get some But you said that's wrong Why did it have to end? You said you only want to be friends And now I'm all alone Baby I beg you to come back home Your friends tell me you found someone new But she doesn't really know you like I do You slipped away, you slipped away from my love You slipped away, I want you to know that I'm still in love You slipped away (you slipped away) You slipped away from my love (from my love) You slipped away, I want you to know that I'm still in love The day you left my side The tears of pain filled my eyes I can't keep holding on Your love is gone, I must move on Every night and day I cry myself to sleep Why can't our love be the way that it used to be? You slipped away, you slipped away from my love You slipped away, I want you to know that I'm still in love You slipped away (you slipped away) You slipped away from my love (from my love) You slipped away, I want you to know that I'm still in love You slipped away (you slipped away) You slipped away from my love You slipped away, I want you to know that I'm still in love You slipped away (you slipped away) You slipped away from my love (from my love) You slipped away, I want you to know that I'm still in love
