Slip Away Lyrics

I had a girl;
Yeah, "had" is the word.
I tried to hold on,
But it was pretty absurd.
She said she loved me,
And I said I loved her too.
But we weren't having any fun,
So what could I do?
I let her slip away...
Away...
I let her slip away...
Away...
I had a car;
Yeah. The colour was blue.
It kept breaking down,
So what could I do?
I put an ad in the papaer;
You know I called it a steal.
Then this guy came to see it,
And we struck up a deal.
I let it slip away...
Away...
I let her slip away...
Away...
I had a thought;
You know I thought it a lot.
I thought I was smart,
And I now I know that I'm not.
I let it slip away...
Away...
I let her slip away...
Away...
I let her slip away...
Away...
