Slipaway Lyrics

I can tell that you're wild

and you love their achey smiles

and I know I'm on the list to be kissed



when you're givin' out my name

as the one you want to blame

you'll be on the brink of tears, that's right



could I talk you out of stayin' here tonight?



well I see that you're cute

in your Viarucci [?] suit

and your eyes have seen the shadows where you hide



I could be a little sweet

that would come off very neat

you'd be on the brink of tears, that's right



could I talk you out of stayin' here tonight?



I've been waitin' all this time

somethin's gotta change now

I get the same erratic line



slip, slipaway now

slip, slipaway now

slip, slip, slip, slipaway now



well I see that you're fast

and you're trip never lasts

and I know I'm on the list to be missed



it's your sentimental streak

that allows you to be meek

and you're on the brink of tears, that's right



could I talk you out of stayin' here tonight?



I've been waitin' all this time

somethin's gotta change now

I get the same erratic line



oh slip, slipaway now

slip, slipaway now

slip, slip, slip, slipaway now



slip, slipaway now

slip, slipaway now

slip



that's right

slip, slip, slip, slipaway now

all right
