Alejandro Escovedo - Slip lyrics

Sometimes my friend she knocks Sometimes she just crashes in She'll tell a joke or two then she waits Sometimes I laugh, sometimes I cry I don't hear a thing Sometimes she just gets bored and leaves Hey you, won't you come and sit with me I never promised anything, I just need for you To slip away with me I try to read between the lines, she won't say a thing I climb the walls for a better view I turn my head and call her name, she won't look my way I climb the walls for a better view Hey you, won't you come and drink with me I haven't broken anything I just need for you To slip away with me Sometimes my friend she knocks Sometimes she just stumbles in She'll tell a joke or two then she waits Sometimes we laugh sometimes we try we don't feel a thing I climb the walls for a better view Hey you, won't you come hold on to me It's not the answer to anything I just need for you To slip away with me
