Down inside the darkness
You don’t know it feels
A warm hand on your shoulder
The cold under your heels they run

Moon lights up the highway
That wanders thru my head
Some friends I’ve come to know
Have disappeared or they’re gone

Slip away
Slip away
Where did you go, I just don’t know
Slip away
Slip away
I need you here, don’t disappear
All these things we love don’t let them slip away

The mysteries of living
The wonder of a child
The shadows of the evening
The ghosts of days gone by they run

Slip away
Slip away
Where did you go, I just don’t know
Slip away
Slip away
I need you here, don’t disappear
All these things we love don’t let them slip away

And I’d love to see you just one time before I have to go
And I’d love to hold you but it seems it is my time to go
And all these things we have, don’t let them slip away

Down inside the darkness
You don’t know it feels
A warm hand on my shoulder
The cold under my heels they run .
