Slipping Away Lyrics by SunYears

Come Fetch My Soul!

2023

I see a beach house by the sea
A private island you and me
A ferry boat just passing by
Go climb a mountain, touch the sky

Chet Baker, Dusty and The Byrds
All the most glorious noises you'll ever heard
I close my eyes and count to ten
And wish they all came back again

And you... you're slipping away from me
Yeah you... you're slipping away from me
I'm up in the blue trying deciphering you
But not breaking through
And you... you're slipping away from me

Road-tested warriors, tried and true
No matter what would follow through
I see you gracefully grow old
Picture myself so proud, still bold

What if it all was make-believe?
Ways of avoiding getting stuck knee-deep?
A lack of love turned into trust?
A die-hard bond, "you should, you must"

And you... you're slipping away from me
Yeah you... you're slipping away from me
I'm up in the blue trying deciphering you
But not breaking through
Yeah you... you're slipping away from me

I listen for the nighttime sounds
Of doo-wop-quartets in bright city lights
Reach out and touch me, I'm still here
I see your face but you're nowhere!

Ooo... you're slipping away from me
Yeah you... you're slipping away from me
I follow your lead but the path isn't clear
Hand in hand with my fear
Yeah you... you're slipping away from me
