I Let It Slip Away
I let it slip away
I remember the days we had together
Now our relationship weathers
I wish I had just one more minute
but I let it slip away
Come back for I miss you
but I can't bring myself to renew
when I look into your eyes
my heart lies
I miss you all to much
I regret letting it slip away
Your eyes are like embers
small and weak
but when I first met you
the embers grew into flames
Big strong and proud
But now there is no strong fire
the embers have died down
Now all that remains
Is the ashes of the fire that one stood proud
I remember the day I let it slip
I have noting to say but I'm sorry
Come back for I need you to carry on
I let it slip away.
