Slip-Sliding Away
Slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
Your know the nearer the destination
the more you're slip-sliding away
And I know a man
He came from my hometown
He wore his passion for his woman like a thorny crown
He said Deloras, I live in fear
My love for you so overpowering
I'm afraid I will disappear
He's slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
Your know the nearer the destination
the more you're slip-sliding away
And I know a woman who became a wife
These are the very words
She uses to describe her life
She says a good day ain't got no rain
She says her bad are when she lies in bed
And thinks of things that might have been
She's slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
Your know the nearer the destination
the more you're slip-sliding away
Slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
Your know the nearer the destination
the more you're slip-sliding away
And I know father and his son
He longed to tell him the reasons
For all the things he'd done
He came a long way just to explain
He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping
And he turned around and headed home again
He's slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
Your know the nearer the destination
the more you're slip-sliding away
Slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
Your know the nearer the destination
the more you're slip-sliding away
Your know the nearer the destination
the more you're slip-sliding away
And I know a man
He came from my hometown
He wore his passion for his woman like a thorny crown
He said Deloras, I live in fear
My love for you so overpowering
I'm afraid I will disappear
He's slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
Your know the nearer the destination
the more you're slip-sliding away
And I know a woman who became a wife
These are the very words
She uses to describe her life
She says a good day ain't got no rain
She says her bad are when she lies in bed
And thinks of things that might have been
She's slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
Your know the nearer the destination
the more you're slip-sliding away
Slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
Your know the nearer the destination
the more you're slip-sliding away
And I know father and his son
He longed to tell him the reasons
For all the things he'd done
He came a long way just to explain
He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping
And he turned around and headed home again
He's slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
Your know the nearer the destination
the more you're slip-sliding away
Slip-sliding away, slip-sliding away
Your know the nearer the destination
the more you're slip-sliding away
