0:20I said I wouldn't cry
0:25The day you say goodbye
0:30It's not like I'll never see you again
0:39I guess the things you need
0:42You just can't get from me
0:47But you still can reach out to me now and then
0:54My head is spinning round
1:00All my defenses down
1:04I have held the world in my hands
1:08But I can't keep you from slipping away
1:22If time will show me grace
1:26And you to a better place
1:31Then I can live knowing it wasn't in vain
1:39It hurts so much to know when love means letting go
1:49And no one can tell me that they've felt my pain
1:58No strength can stop you now
2:01Will someone show me how
2:05How to live it over again
2:09'Cause I can't keep you from slipping away
2:18I will never break your power over me
2:26I could never shake the thought of you burning in my mind
2:35You're all I see
2:54My head is spinning round
2:58All my defenses down
3:02I have held the world in my hands
3:06But I can't keep you from slipping away
3:15Oh I can't keep you from slipping away
3:32Oh Slipping away
Slipping Away

I said I wouldn't cry
The day you say goodbye
It's not like I'll never see you again
I guess the things you need
You just can't get from me
But you still can reach out to me now and then
My head is spinning round
All my defenses down
I have held the world in my hands
But I can't keep you from slipping away
If time will show me grace
And you to a better place
Then I can live knowing it wasn't in vain
It hurts so much to know when love means letting go
And no one can tell me that they've felt my pain
No strength can stop you now
Will someone show me how
How to live it over again
'Cause I can't keep you from slipping away
I will never break your power over me
I could never shake the thought of you burning in my mind
You're all I see
My head is spinning round
All my defenses down
I have held the world in my hands
But I can't keep you from slipping away
Oh  I can't keep you from slipping away
Oh  Slipping away
