"Slip" lyrics

"Slip"

I'm hearing silence on the other line
I've been looking for the right time
To say the words that feel a little more
A little more right yeah
I'm doing fine, I just wish you'd ask
Even though I never give that back
And though I try, I take all the blame
No summer loving it's for real and that's just where I'm at

I've been slippin' up around you all this time
Been slippin' up around you
And I don't wanna know the context of this call
I really wanna show you
That I see the way, I know how you feel
Take you away and show you what's real
I've been slippin' up around you all this time
Been slippin' up around you

Looking at names in the cemetery
It was particularly cold that night
Buried together in a February
I wonder what those lives were like
Under the snow would you be my angel
Under that stars would you be my light
A glimmer of love in an endless timeline
So lost and that was alright

I've been slippin' up around you all this time
Been slippin' up around you
And I don't wanna know the context of this call
I really wanna show you
That I see the way, I know how you feel
Take you away and show you what's real
I've been slippin' up around you all this time
Been slippin' up around you

And if I wrote every word in red
And every second felt permanent
Would you believe everything I said
I could let you in, I could let you

I've been slippin' up around you all this time
Been slippin' up around you
And I don't wanna know the context of this call
I really wanna show you
That I see the way, I know how you feel
Take you away and show you what's real
I've been slippin' up around you all this time
Been slippin' up around you
I've been slippin' up around you all this time
Been slippin' up around you
