Lyrics Jean Shepard

Jean Shepard

Slippin' Away

Monday's promise is Tuesday's lie

Saturday's party is Sunday's fight

Somethin's wrong with you and I

Love's gone wrong that used to be right

And I can feel it slippin' away

Slowly, slowly slippin' away

It'll be gone in a few more days

If we don't stop this love of ours

From slippin' away

Wednesday's kisses are Thursday's frowns

We can't live two days in a row

When our world's not upside down

Here we stand watchin' it go

And I can feel it slippin' away

Slowly, slowly slippin' away

It'll be gone in a few more days

If we don't stop this love of ours

From slippin' away

Roses are red, violets are blue

Sugar is sweet some of the time

This puzzle's missin' a piece or two

We've got the grapes but never the wine

And I can feel it slippin' away

Slowly, slowly slippin' away

It'll be gone in a few more days

If we don't stop this love of ours

From slippin' away

And I can feel it slippin' away

Slowly, slowly slippin' away

It'll be gone in a few more days

If we don't stop this love of ours

From slippin' away

And I can feel it slippin' away

Slowly, slowly slippin' away

It'll be gone in a few more days

If we don't stop this love of ours

From slippin' away
