Slip Away

Face to face, with midnight and lace
Lost completely in your eyes
Heart to heart, coming in from worlds apart
And taken by surprise
Here I am, with one more glass of courage
Trying to think the whole thing through
Complications and a very strange situation
All I know is, one thing I can't do is let you

Slip away (I can't let you baby)
Slip away (Let you slip away)
Slip away (I won't let you darling)
Slip away (Let you slip away)
I ain't gonna let you slip away

Buying time, running through my mind
All the feelings that I can't change
Next to you, wanting you the way I do
No one's playing games
Here I am, on the edge again
Baby nothing ventured
Nothing really learned
Now's the time, for changing our minds
Cause girl if someone's walkin'
No one will get burned
But then you would...

Slip away (I can't let you baby)
Slip away (Let you slip away)
Slip away (I won't let you darling)
Slip away (Let you slip away)
I ain't gonna let you slip away

Baby take what you're needing
Soon we'll be leaving
That's just the way it's got to be
I don't want promises
I want you here beside me...

I just can't let you baby...
Slip away (I can't let you baby)
Slip away (Let you slip away)
Slip away (I won't let you darling)
Slip away (Let you slip away)
I ain't gonna let you slip away

I won't let you, never let you
Slip away, slip away
