Steve Lillywhite - Slip Away lyrics

Enter me gently, I break in the light Cover my eyes, with the rags of my life Was I dreaming Or did you say The frontiers are falling It's time to be slipping away Let's slip away Let's slip away All things fall from me, the bonds and the veils All things blow by me, my sorrows have sails Was I dreaming Or did you say The empires are fading It's time to be slipping away Let's slip away Let's slip away What am I to do Don't leave me What is there to say, I really... We're just wasting time Let the night takes its place Colour my eyes with the dusk of this wonderful day Let's slip away Let's slip away Letters from lovers are lining my grate Some came too early and some came too late Were you speaking Or did I say The frontiers have fallen It's time to be slipping away As you call me My hands they fall open My mouth it is frozen The chrysalis tumbles I'm falling Slow motion Dissolve
