Lyrics
Copyright © 1997, Ray Mc Enaney
Slip Away
Sometimes I feel as if I am going insane
And it's hard to keep your mind when nothing seems too plain
When bent down to your knees
Where no one hears your pleas
But that's alright - you see
Yeah it's alright by me
Chorus
Cos I can slip away
Get lost in dreams
Where I don't need to be part of anyone's schemes
Where I can be as free as I want to be
Let later take care of reality
Like a butterfly on the breeze
With no one else to please
Yeah yeah slip away
Get lost in yesterday
Think of some tomorrow
That suits me better
For I don't need the worry - I don't need the pain
And anyway - what would it gain
Just slip away
Slip away
Sometimes I feel as if my time is all a waste
And though it's hard to explain - it's like my life has lost its taste
When bent down to your knees
Where nothing else can please
But that's alright - you see
Yeah it's alright by me
(Repeat Chorus)
