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

How could he resist such a plea. This is beautifuly expressed. Sometimes men need to be reminded of their promises.

Thank you Richard. Sometimes when one is given an assurance of ones love and remind him of his unfinished tasks one might return back from his slipping away soul. and it really happen to one of my friends son in law. who returned after 3 months deep unconscious state. his wife had been beside him day and night mostly talking to him I was told. Thank you Richard.

Sounds like lost or a marriage falling apart. What ever it is be strong and don't give up.
