The Stranglers
She’s Slipping Away
There's a girl outside my door
Dirty face I think I've seen before
Cries she wants to keep her man
But this love'll kill her if he thinks he can...

She's slipping away now
She's keeping her head down
She's spinning the world round
She's outta sight nowwww

She's had enough but she wants more
Tries to catch her breathe outside my door
Feels she never will be found
But the cold wind blowing brings her round...

I said you've got to be strong
Now she doesnt stand a chance
This Lovers entwined she can't fight the fire
That's burning way down in her soul

She's slipping away now...
She's keeping her head down...
She's spinning the world round
She's outta sight nowwwwwww
