Martin Briley - Slipping Away lyrics

You always said you're gonna be someone You're always fighting but you still haven't won Your luggage stands in the blue foyer You're getting older and you never used to feel this way I gave you water 'til the well ran dry But there was something about the way you said goodbye We didn't speak for so long And I wish that I was wrong But I can feel it slipping away And I never thought I would be crying this way But I can feel it in my bones Can see the crack in the cornerstone And I can feel it slipping away I notice you've been neglecting your health A mere shadow of your former self You're full of guilt over something you've done For what's to stop you reaching out just to touch someone I'll wait and see what the mailman brings Or blow the dust from the phone that never rings And I know there is something in the air I could swear I can feel it slipping away And I never thought I would be crying this way But I can feel it in my bones Can see the crack in the cornerstone And I can feel it slipping away I'll wait and see what the mailman brings Or blow the dust from the phone that never rings And I know there is something in the air I could swear I can feel it slipping away And I never thought I would be crying this way But I can feel it in my bones Can see the crack in the cornerstone And I can feel it slipping away I can feel it slipping away I can feel it slipping away I can feel it slipping away I can feel it slipping away
