[Verse 1]
Ooh, slipping away, just a heartbeat from disaster
Nothin' to make me stay, close your eyes and I'll be gone
Turn the page, yeah, got to start another story
Slipping away, slipping away, time to move along
[Chorus 1]
No reason to stay
Oh, when I'm slipping away
[Verse 2]
Take a look at yourself, you've been running in a circle
Round and round you go, you're a start without an end
Start a new life, yeah, from the city of the gypsies
Running away, slipping away, right behind the plow
[Chorus 2]
Slipping away
Slipping away
Nobody to pay
Look out, 'cause I'm slipping away
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Rockin' the glass, I won't leave you my reflection
A future without a past, no more road to take me back, no
Come if you will, yeah, just don't question my direction
Running away, slipping away, we can find the sun
[Chorus 3]
Slipping away
Slipping away
Got nobody to pay
So, and you're slipping away
[Outro]
No more running in a circle, it's time to move along
Round, round, round we go, a start without an end
So I'm slipping away
Slipping away
