Slippin' Away

And she said, "I've been searchin' for you
 Since the dawn of time"
 And she said, "I'll be waitin' for you
 'Til the end of time
 'Til the end of time"
 And I closed my eyes
 And then she sighed
 For she was slippin' away
 Slippin' away
 And she said, "I've been yearnin' for you, for you
 Since the dawn of time"
 And she said, "I'll be burnin' for you, for you
 'Til the end of time
 'Til the end of time"
 And I touched her hair
 But she wasn't there
 For she was slippin' away
 Slippin' away
 Then she rocked me (Lord, how high)
 She rolled me
 Until it touched the sky
 She told me (the reason why)
 The reason why
 She was slippin' away
 The reason why
 She was slippin' away
 She needed love, love, love, come on, love
 She needed love, child
 She was slippin' away
 She needed love, love, love, come on, love
 She needed love, child
 She was slippin' away
 She needed love, love, love, come on, love
 She needed love, child
 She was slippin' away
 She needed love, love, love
 (On the street, she took her love) Come on, love
 She needed love, child
 (Lord) She was slippin' away
 So I said, "I've been searchin' for you, for you
 Since the dawn of time"
 So I said, "I'll be waitin' for you, for you
 'Til the end of time
 'Til the end of time"
 For you
 'Til the end of time
 For you
 'Til the end of time
 And I closed my eyes
 And then she sighed
 For she was slippin' away ('Til the end of time)
 Slippin' away ('Til the end of time)
 Slippin' away ('Til the end of time)
 Slippin' away ('Til the end of time)
 Slippin' away
 Slippin' away
 Slippin' away
 Slippin' away
