Slipping Away Lyrics

Place your head on my shoulder

You can stay here if you'd like

Watch the leaves change their colors

While our fingers intertwine

Oh, how lucky am I

I can call you mine

I like the small things in life

You like the way the seasons change

Try as we might

Love has a habit of slipping away

Restless heart, you're not broken

You're just tired from wearing thin

Feel the words left unspoken

As they seep into your skin

But, oh how lucky am I

You would give me your time

I like the small things in life

You like the way the seasons change

Try as we might

Love has a habit of slipping away

I like the stillness of the night

You let the daylight come in waves

Holding too tight

Love has a habit of slipping away

I loved the sparkle in your eye

Watch as the emerald fades to gray

Try as we might

Love has a habit of slipping away
