SLIPPING AWAY

The tracing paper moon that night
Hardly cast a glow
And everybody there that night
Was someone in the know

You thought that it would end that night
I hardly made a sound
And everywhere you went that night
I followed you around

Watching me slipping
Watching me slipping
Watching me slipping...away

Something in the air that night
Was calling me so near
Looking straight into the light
And telling me you’re here

Time to say goodnight tonight
Do as you are told
I know that you were there that night
I only have two hands to hold

Watching me slipping
Watching me slipping
Watching me slipping...away

I think I knew more than you thought I did
I think you flew more than you thought you could

Watching me slipping
Watching me slipping
Watching me slipping
Watching me slipping
Watching me slipping
Watching me slipping...away
