Slipping Away

(album: Note To Self - 2010)

You're slippin away, but I'm not gonna let you fall
A life is all you've got
I keep you in danger and you're not afraid
You're leaving me no choice

When my ice cold fingertips touch you're skin you don't even blink
When the sunlight reaches my face you glow with me, you don't run away
And I have plenty of questions that could scare you off
I won't steer you wrong, I need you standing strong, with me in the dark

You're slippin away, but I'm not gonna let you fall
A life is all you've got
I keep you in danger and you're not afraid
You're leaving me no choice
Cause I don't ever wanna leave you for dead, there's something else here
Cause I don't ever wanna leave you for dead

You're smell tingles my senses, I am senseless when you're around
And you won't find an empty part of me, because you fill it out
And you give me a purpose, you give me love
As much as you make me weak, you give me courage now
Stand by my side

You're slippin away, but I'm not gonna let you fall
A life is all you've got
I keep you in danger and you're not afraid
You're leaving me no choice
Cause I don't ever wanna leave you for dead, there's something else here
Cause I don't ever wanna leave you for dead

I've been disabled all this time, never seen an angel fall in love
Right in front of me, then she runs to me
And I would love to be her guardian
But
At this point we're both charging in
To something that we both don't understand
What the hell am I thinkin I gotta get it together,
Am I the only one thinkin that it could ever get better because,
Tomorrow they will find me calling out again,
With the emptiness that you filled and everything I am

Cause I don't ever wanna leave you for dead, there's something else here
Cause I don't ever wanna leave you for dead
You are the one, you are the one, I cannot hide it anymore
You are the one, you are the one, I cannot hide it anymore
I can't hide it anymore
