Slippin' Away
(Steve Earle, Chris Gates, David Roach) Back in my old home town There were long summer days And there were leaves on the ground And it was too cold to play The city's colder than cold It's faceless and gray And all the dreams that you hold Keep slippin' away [Chorus:] Slippin' away, slippin' away Little by little, day by day Slippin' away, slippin' away Little by little and day by day I saw an old friend of mine Asked if he was ok And he said everything's fine But his eyes filled with pain Yeah, he had nothin' to lose He had nothin' to say He feels worn out and used SongtexteAnd slippin' away [Chorus] Better put up a fight Start right here today It's time you start right Before you just slip away [Chorus 2x] Aus Songtexte Mania
