Slipping Away

Spent a long time slipping away
Spent a long time dreaming
So reach out and touch today
It's all we're giving

Fools will always try and take
But if everyone can deal with the notion
Rest assured it will always be okay
I try to sidestep all the emotion
Rest assured it will always be okay

Spent a long time slipping away
Spent a long time dreaming
Just try to grab today
It's all you're giving

Fools will always lie in bed
But if everyone can deal with the notion
Rest assured it will always be okay
I try to sidestep all the emotion
Rest assured it will always be okay

You're slipping
You're slipping
You're at your best when you're slipping
You try to dig yourself out of your grave
Still slipping

I'd settle for more devotion
Rather than slipping away
Still slipping
I'd settle for more devotion
Rather than slipping away
I'd settle for more devotion
Rather than slipping

If everyone can deal with the notion
Rest assured it will always be okay
If I try to bandage all that is broken
Rest assured it will always be okay
So try to sidestep all the emotion
And rest assured it will always be okay
