"Slip Away" lyrics
(originally by Clarence Carter)
What would I give
For just a few moments?
What would I give
Just to have you near?
Tell me you would try
To slip away somehow
Oh, I need you, darling
I wanna see you right now
Can you slip away, slip away, slip away?
Oh, I need you so
Love, oh, love
How sweet it is
When you steal it, darling
Let me tell you something now how sweet it is
Now, I know it's wrong
The things I ask you to do
But please believe me, darling
I don't mean to hurt you
But could you just slip away
Without him knowing that you're gone?
Then we could meet somewhere
Somewhere where we're both not known
Can you slip away, slip away, slip away?
I need you so
Oh, can you slip away, baby?
You know I'd like to see you right now, darling
Can you slip away right now?
'Cause I got to, I got to see you, baby
'Cause I feel a deep burning down inside
Oh, well, slip away
For just a few moments?
What would I give
Just to have you near?
Tell me you would try
To slip away somehow
Oh, I need you, darling
I wanna see you right now
Can you slip away, slip away, slip away?
Oh, I need you so
Love, oh, love
How sweet it is
When you steal it, darling
Let me tell you something now how sweet it is
Now, I know it's wrong
The things I ask you to do
But please believe me, darling
I don't mean to hurt you
But could you just slip away
Without him knowing that you're gone?
Then we could meet somewhere
Somewhere where we're both not known
Can you slip away, slip away, slip away?
I need you so
Oh, can you slip away, baby?
You know I'd like to see you right now, darling
Can you slip away right now?
'Cause I got to, I got to see you, baby
'Cause I feel a deep burning down inside
Oh, well, slip away
