My World Keeps Slipping Away

(album: Now - 1981)

I tell myself our love will last
And yet I know it's just the past I'm clinging to
I kiss the lips I know so well
One little kiss and I can tell you've been untrue

The more I try to reach your heart
The more it seems we drift apart, what can I do
Day by day my world keeps slipping away
You find it hard to let me go
Because you think that I don't know the way you feel

I know you're trying to be kind
But yet it hurts me more to find you so unreal
One little look into your eyes
And I can see a thousand lies that you reveal
Day by day my world keeps slipping away
The world we knew is almost gone
But I'll, I'll keep holding on

I know I'd wish you back again
If we could wander back to when you cared for me
The heartbreak that I'm feeling now
Would change if you'd remember how it used to be
Please put the world back into place
Without your love I only face a memory
Day by day my world keeps slipping away
Day by day my world keeps slipping away
