Slip Away

Well she stole my love
 Out on the guilded stage
 Worked so hard just to keep what I had
 But it wouldn't stay
 She couldn't find the time
 To rebuild those things that once stood
 Ran for the hills, got hooked on the bills
 Baby there I stood
 Oh, my love
 Well it gets away
 Oh, upside down
 I don't care if you stay
 Oh, baby it slips away
 Oh, even if it slips away
 Well she walks back home
 Over the trail she burned
 The key to your heart is to find what you love
 Like a cat named Fern
 She was caught up in a dream
 Of the life she knew was the in the past
 Well it's all so wrong, don't be long
 Come back now to the life me and you had
 Oh, my love
 Well it slips away
 Oh, from this town
 I don't care if you stay
 Oh, if it slips away
 Oh, even if it all slips away
 Well she lost my heart
 Didn't even think that she could
 Begin to let it all just fall apart
 Just like you knew that it would
 Oh, don't let it slip away
 Oh, don't let it all get away now
 Don't forget what we had, had, yeah now
 Just don't let it get away
