Slip Away


What's this? A little dust in my eye
Well I'm not the type to cry
It's four am I'm standing by the bed where you lie
Sleeping the sleep of the newborn
I put [my] finger to your lips Warm air
Five am You lift your hand and open it
Then you slipped away You slipped away
Oh death, that creep, that crooked jerk
He comes, he comes walking He comes sneaking
Down that long irreversible hallway
Grabs you in your sleep

I walk outside to the parking lot
Bright coins of water on the sidewalk
Big white building where your body lies
Stands in the middle of the fields Icy air
And after all the shocks the way the heart unlocks
And ooo we slip away We slip away

I'm thinking about the way that lost things always come back
Looking like something else
A fishing pole, a shoe, an old shirt, a lucky day
Ooo then they slip away into the remains of the day
Ooo they slip away They slip away

I'm thinking how you taught me how to win
And how to loose
And how to fight the crippling blues that I was born with
Bad dreams and nightmares
Ooo they slip away Ooo they slip away into the remains of the day

I know that sometime I'll stop looking for you
Stop seeing your face every day
Bad dreams and nightmares and big bad wolves
Ooo they slip away into the remains of the day
Ooo they slip away into the remains of the day
They slip away

You told me you had no idea how to die but I saw
The way the light left your eyes
And after all the shocks the way the heart unlocks
And ooo then you slipped away You slipped away
