Slip Slidin Away
Chorus:Slip slidin awaySlip slidin awayYou know the nearer your destinationThe more you're slip sliding away
I know a manHe came from my home townHe wore his passion for his womanLike a thorny crownHe said Delores I live in fearMy love for you's so overpoweringI'm afraid that I will disappear
I know a womanBecame a wifeThese are the very words she usesTo describe her lifeShe said a good day ain't got no rainShe said a bad day's when I lie in bedAnd think of things that might have been
I know a father who had a sonHe longed to tell him all the reasonsFor the things he'd doneHe came a long way just to explainHe kissed his boy as he lay sleepingThen he turned around and he headed home again
God only knows, God makes his planThe information is unavailable to the mortal manWe work our jobs, collect our payBelieve we're gliding down the highwayWhen in fact we're slip slidin away
