Slippin' Away

(Bill Anderson)



Monday's promise is Tuesday's lie

Saturday's party is Sunday's fight

Something's wrong with you and I

Love's gone wrong that used to be right.



And I can feel it slippin' away

Slowly, slowly, slippin' away

It'll be gone in a few more days

If we don't stop this love of ours from slippin' away.



Wednesday's kisses are Thursday's frowns

We can't live two days in a row

When our world's not upside down

Here we stand just watchin' it go.



And I can feel it slippin' away

Slowly, slowly, slippin' away

It'll be gone in a few more days

If we don't stop this love of ours from slippin' away.



Roses are red and violets are blue

Sugar is sweet some of the time

This puzzle's missin' a piece or two

We've got the grapes but never the wine.



And I can feel it slippin' away

Slowly, slowly, slippin' away

It'll be gone in a few more days

If we don't stop this love of ours from slippin' away.



Oh, I can feel it slippin' away

Slowly, slowly, slippin' away

It'll be gone in a few more days

If we don't stop this love of ours from slippin' away...
