Slipping From Me

(album: With Love, Marty Robbins - 1980)

Well it's not how ya walk
When you walk away
And it's not how ya talk
It's in what ya say
I'd open my eyes
Oh, but I don't want to see
I don't wanna realize
You're slipping from me

It's not in your touch
It's not there anymore
And it's not in your kiss
Like it was before
I'd open my eyes
Oh, but I'm too scared to see
I don't wanna realize
You're slipping from me

Everyday
Seems longer and longer
And the nights
They're like you're not here
And I know
I just can't look forward
For tomorrow (tomorrow)
Just might disappear

So, please hold me close
And tell me I'm wrong
I can't make it alone
I'm just not that strong
I'll open my eyes
And if you're there for me
It's too plain, otherwise
You're slipping from me
It's too plain, otherwise
You're slipping from me
