My eyes are closed and yet I see
|
You're slipping away from me
|
Someone else's new charms
|
Are you're reason to his arms.
|
|
My lips are sealed but my heart knows
|
A love for someone else in your heart grows
|
I'm holding you're love that just can't be
|
You're slipping away from me.
|
|
A precious love that used to be
|
It's slipping away from me
|
And I already miss
|
The thrill that was in your kiss.
|
|
I know I'm loving you in vain
|
With all to lose and nothing left to gain
|
I'll soon be living with the memory
|
You're slipping away from me...
|
