While the tiny drops of rain
|
Race down my windowpane
|
There's a flood of loneliness
|
Running wild inside of me
|
My hand reaches for the phone
|
Dials the number at your home
|
To beg you once again to slip away
|
|
Though I know that it's not fair
|
That the one who's with you there
|
Buys the slippers that you leave beneath my bed
|
Slip the ring from your finger
|
And quickly after dinner
|
Make some excuse, and darlin
|
Slip away
|
|
chours:
|
|
Slip away for just an hour
|
Let me live for one minute
|
Everything in me is wanting
|
To hold you once again
|
Stealing minutes; hours; days
|
I just live to hear you say
|
"I love you", so darlin'
|
Slip away
|
|
