The Rolling Stones - Slipping Away Lyrics

The Rolling Stones Lyrics

"Slipping Away"

Guess it's just another dream
That's slipping away
Each time that I fall asleep
It seems drifting away

Just as you have touched my heart
Babe I wake and we're apart
Yeah and it's slipping away

Here comes just another day
That's drifting away
Every time I draw a breath
It's dying away

First the sun and then the moon
(Slipping)
One of them will be around soon
(Slipping away)
(Slipping away)
Slipping

It's just drifting away
It's slipping
Slipping away

Just as you have touched my heart
(Slipping)
I wake up babe and we're apart
It seems we're slipping away
(Slipping away)
(Slipping away)

All I want is ecstasy
But I ain't getting much
Just getting off on misery
It seems I've lost my touch

Well it's just another song
But it's slipping away
Well, we didn't sing it long
'Cause it's fading away

Just the sun and then the moon
One of them will be round soon
And then slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away

Slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away

Slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away
I just can't keep on hold on, baby
Slipping away
Drifting
Slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away

I just
Slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away
