[Verse 1]
This morn, I woke in my hat and my coat
And I picked up the phone to call you
But I hung up soon, before you even knew
Thinking someone else could be beside you

[Chorus 1]
You can run, you can hide
You can save it all inside
Sooner than later, it'll find you
Yes, and maybe it has
Somewhere in the past
But somehow it still slipped by you
Oh it slipped by you
Oh it slipped by you

[Verse 2]
Well it's not your fault I pushed you to walk
Straight into the forest of disaster
With a blindfold on, singing you a song
Of innocence and happy ever after

[Chorus 2]
Well I run and I hide
And I save it all inside
But I know that soon it'll find me
Yes, and maybe it has
Somewhere in the past
But somehow it still slipped by me
Oh it slipped by me
Oh it slipped by me
