Karaoké Slip Slidin' Away Paul Simon

Slip slidin' away

Slip slidin' away

You know the nearer your destination

The more you're slip slidin' away

I know a man he came from my home town

He wore his passion for his woman like a thorny crown

He said Delores

I live in fear

My love for you's so overpowering

I'm afraid that I will disappear

Slip slidin' away

Slip slidin' away

You know the nearer your destination

The more you're slip slidin' away

And I know a woman became a wife

These are the very words she uses to describe her life

She said a good day ain't got no rain

She said a bad day's when I lie in

Bed and think of things that might have been

Slip slidin' away

Slip slidin' away

You know the nearer your destination

The more you're slip slidin' away

And I know a father who had a son

He longed to tell him all the reasons for the things he'd done

He came a long way just to explain

He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping

Then he turned around and headed home again

He slip slidin' slip slidin' away

You know the nearer your destination

The more you're slip slidin' away

God only knows

God makes his plan

The information's unavailable to the mortal man

We're workin' our jobs collectin' our pay

Believe we're gliding down the highway

When in fact we're slip slidin' away

Slip slidin' away

Slip slidin' away

You know the nearer your destination

The more you're slip slidin' away

Slip slidin' away

Slip slidin' away

You know the nearer your destination

The more you're slip slidin' away
