Slip Sildin' Away Lyrics

Slip slidin' away

Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you slip slidin' away

I know a man
He came from my home town
He wore his passion for his woman
Like a thorny crown
He said "Dololres
I live in fear
My lve for you is so overpowering
I'm afraid that I will disappear"

Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you slip slidin' away

I knwo woman
Became a wife
These are the very words she uses
To describe her life
She said "A good day
Ain't got no rain"
She said "A bad day's when I lie in bed
And think of things that might have been"

Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you slip slidin' away

And I know a father
Who had a son
He longed to tell him all the reasons
For the things he'd done
He came a long way
Just to explain
He kissed his boy when he layleeping
Then he turned around and he headed home again

Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you slip slidin' away

God only knows
God makes his plan
The information's unavaiable
To the mortal man
We work on our jobs
Collect our pay
Believe we're gliding down the hightway
When in fact we're slip slidin' away

Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you slip slidin' away

Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you slip slidin' away
