Slipping Away
Oh.. how selfish you are
Have you send all your promises
Down the drain
The day you put a gold band in my finger
Do you remember?
I remember, how you said you love me
Oh… don’t you love us anymore
We are frighten to be alone
Our task, you and I started, is not over
What will I tell him tomorrow if he asks
Do you remember?
I remember, how he loves to play with you
Oh…. Stay with me
You said I can cry over your shoulder
You will be a pillar for me to lean on
The nights when the world is silent
Do you remember?
I remember, how we danced under the stars
Oh…..Where can I pick up
Your cast away promises
Have you send them to heaven
The cold nights, I waited for you outside
Do you remember?
I remember, how you hurried down to us
Oh…..please tell me something
Tell me you are wrong, tell me you won’t go
Come back to our world my darling
You are all we have,
Do you remember?
I’ll always remember, our last kiss
Oh….. Please stay with us, oh…..do come back to us
Don’t slip away; the world is waiting for you
Don’t slip away……don’t just slip away, I need you my darling
