Slippin' Away Songtext
von Jean Shepard

Monday′s promise is Tuesday's lie
Saturday′s party is Sunday's fight
Somethin's wrong with you and I
Love′s gone wrong that used to be right

And I can feel it slippin′ away
Slowly, slowly slippin' away
It′ll be gone in a few more days
If we don't stop this love of ours
From slippin′ away

Wednesday's kisses are Thursday′s frowns
We can't live two days in a row
When our world's not upside down
Here we stand watchin′ it go

And I can feel it slippin′ away
Slowly, slowly slippin' away
It′ll be gone in a few more days
If we don't stop this love of ours
From slippin′ away


Roses are red, violets are blue
Sugar is sweet some of the time
This puzzle's missin′ a piece or two
We've got the grapes but never the wine

And I can feel it slippin' away
Slowly, slowly slippin′ away
It′ll be gone in a few more days
If we don't stop this love of ours
From slippin′ away

And I can feel it slippin' away
Slowly, slowly slippin′ away
It'll be gone in a few more days
If we don′t stop this love of ours
From slippin' away

And I can feel it slippin' away
Slowly, slowly slippin′ away
It′ll be gone in a few more days
If we don't stop this love of ours
From slippin′ away
