Down inside the darkness
You don't know how it feels
A warm hand on your shoulders
The cold under your heels, they run

Moon lights up the highway
That wanders thru my head
Some friends I've come to know have
Disappeared or they're dead and gone

Slip away, slip away
Where did you go, I just don't know
Slip away, slip away
I need you here, don't disappear
All these things we love
Don't let 'em slip away

The mysteries of living
The wonder of a child
The shadows of the evening
The ghosts of days gone by, they run

Slip away, slip away
Where did you go, I just don't know
Slip away, slip away
I need you here, don't disappear
All these things we have
Don't let 'em slip away

And I'd love to see you just one time before I have to go
And I'd love to hold you but it seems it is my time to go
And all these things we have, don't let 'em slip away

Down inside the darkness
You don't know it feels
A warm hand on my shoulder
The cold under my heels, they run

Slip away, slip away
Where did you go, I just don't know
Slip away, slip away
I need you here, don't disappear

Slip away, slip away
Where did you go, I just don't know
Slip away, slip away

Slip away, slip away
Slip away, slip away

Slip away, slip away
