Slipping Away

Place your head on my shoulder You can stay here if you'd like Watch the leaves change their colors While our fingers intertwine Oh, how lucky am I I can call you mine I like the small things in life You like the way the seasons change Try as we might Love has a habit of slipping away Restless heart, you're not broken You're just tired from wearing thin Feel the words left unspoken As they seep into your skin But, oh how lucky am I You would give me your time I like the small things in life You like the way the seasons change Try as we might Love has a habit of slipping away I like the stillness of the night You let the daylight come in waves Holding too tight Love has a habit of slipping away I loved the sparkle in your eye Watch as the emerald fades to gray Try as we might Love has a habit of slipping away
