You're Slippin' Away
Heartache is
a disease
It leaves you with nothing
but memories
Of all the times
that were shared together
Why can't we learn
that nothing lasts forever
Cause at first
we don't see
We're just too in love
we just wanna be
In each other's arms
In each other's sight
In each other's hearts
and each other's dreams
When you're in love with someone
nothing's like it seems
You're slippin' away
I can't beleive you
You're slippin' away
please take me with you
