Slippin' Away

On her face story’s carved in lines
 Corners of her mouth turned down fighting time
 sadness, an’ the years piling high
 Sitin' by herself Alone and Restless Her rooms wrong somehow Her things… she knows ’em… but, she can’t…Oh but she can’t say why…no, she can’t say why, why…She don’t understand why Memories – fragile as smoke
Overwritten, erased, and broke
Time keeps rollin’, she’s slippin’ away
Will she remember her joy and her pain? Everything she loved and lost
Slippin' away…
 She’s holdin’ on Yeahhh, She’s holdin’ on to whatever she can grab
 Scratchin’ notes on paper, writin’ names so…so, so they don’t Fade Worst fear comin’ true Right in front of her eyes
 Shes Hoping…she remembers you… when the morning dies...yeah, When the morning dies Thinking of the years Gone by with Sadness Pullin’ at strings of faded memories She Folds her hands to pray…
“Please God... don’t let it be how it goes, No-Oh, don’t let it be how it goe, Oh-no, Oh-no, Oh-no, Memories – fragile as smoke
Overwritten, erased, and broke
Time keeps rollin’, she’s slippin’ away
Will she remember her joy and her pain?
Everything she loved and lost
Slippin' away…
 An unFamiliar room…Things she remembers…She reaches out… but pulls back again
 The PAST… is a stranger… wearin’ her skin…memories are thin Tears roll down, she don’t understand why, don’t understand why, why…She don’t understand why Memories – fragile as smoke
Will she remember…Will she remember her joy and her pain?
 Everything she loved and lost it’s slippin’ away Oh, yeah, Evey Day is a new day, that’s slippin' away… slippin' Away… slippin' Away oh-oh I’ts slippin' Away…slippin' away… slippin' away… slippin' Away…it’s Slippin away… Slippin’ away…slippin’ Away…slippin’ away…slippin’ away slipin’… a…way…
