Slipped Lyrics

Walking on broken glass

Lost in a dark room

Trying to find you

Boxes of photographs

Pictures and postcards

Places I saw you last

(You last)

I don't know how to get to you tonight

Reverse the orbit of the earth

And try to turn back time

But there's some things we can never know

The door has closed on why

And though it hurts to let you go

Our time has slipped on by

Our time has slipped on by

Sleeping as water falls

Onto the roof top

Dreaming it won't stop

We lived inside these walls

Damaged and broken

Nothing has changed at all

(At all)

I don't know how to get to you tonight

Reverse the orbit of the earth

And try to turn back time

But there's some things we can never know

The door has closed on why

And though it hurts to let you go

Our time has slipped on by

Our time has slipped on by

Oooooh I

I'm staring at your photograph

But oh, those eyes

Tonight they leave me cold

Oooooh I

I'm drowning in the aftermath

Of why oh why

Why did you have to go

I don't know how to get to you tonight

Reverse the orbit of the earth

And try to turn back time

But there's some things we can never know

The door has closed on why

And though it hurts to let you go

Our time has slipped on by

Our time has slipped on by

Our time has slipped on by

Our time has slipped on by
