Slipping Away

[Verse 1]
If I could hold you again I would
Gotta lay down my pride
Oh, you brought out the best of me
When I was broken inside
Now the lines on my face paint it so clear
Ah, I was different then
The truth is I don't wanna be friends no more
I feel myself slipping away, woo

[Chorus]
Slipping away from you
So God only knows
Slipping away from you
God only knows

[Verse 2]
It's been about six months, I'm at the gate drinking whiskey
Gotta go, I'm boarding my plane
And all I hope, all I hope is that you miss me
And you know I've finally changed the rules in me

[Chorus]
Slipping away from you, ooh-ooh
God only knows, yeah, baby
Slipping away from you, oh-oh, yeah
God only knows
I guess I should've been there, there, there, oh-oh

[Bridge]
All thesе lonely nights
Killing me inside, it's killing mе inside, woman
And it might take some time
But maybe we should try, give it one more try, babe, come on
Hold me closely next to your heart
I promise I'll keep you close to mine
Oh, baby, just hold me closely next to your heart
I promise I'll keep you close to mine

[Outro]
Give me your love
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Boy, you know what I want
Oh, baby
Gonna give me your love
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Said I can't go with or without you, baby
Boy, you know what I want
Ooh, ooh
