Slip Away

IN MY LIFE IV'E SHED MANY A TEAR
NOT BECAUSE I'M RICH OR POOR
SHARED MANY OF LIFE'S PLEASURES
LET THESE WORDS LINGER IN YOUR EARS
HARD TIMES COME AND GO
BUT IT'S LIFE THAT'S FULL OF TREASURES 
DON'T LET LIFE SLIP AWAY

IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOUR STRAIGHT OR GAY
IF YOU LOVE SOMEONE LET EVERYONE KNOW
I'M PLEADING WITH YOU TO LET IT ALL OUT
DON'T LET YOUR VOICES GO SILENT TODAY
MAKE THIS A BETTER DAY LET YOUR LOVE SHOW
STAND UP RIGHT NOW AND SHOUT IT OUT 
DON'T LET LIFE SLIP AWAY
