Slippin' Away

1 4 1

Monday’s promises and Tuesday’s lies

5 1

Saturday’s party, Sunday’s fight

4 1

Something’s wrong with you and I

5 1

Love’s gone wrong that used to be right

1 4 1

And I can feel it slippin’ away

Slowly slowly slippin’ away

4 1

It’ll be gone in a few more days

5 1

If we don’t stop this love of ours from slippin’ away

Wednesday’s kisses and Thursday’s frown

We can’t live three days in a row

When our world’s turned upside down

Here we stand watchin’ it go

Roses are red and violets are blue

Sugar is sweet some of the time

This puzzle’s missing a piece or two

God put grapes, but never the wine
