Slip Away

Benny Mardones

Morning comes, Night runs away
Hides 'til the end of another day
I love the night
Sun sets into the sea like a ball of fire dying to sleep
And I love the nights

And I remember when the nights all were magic
And I remember when I lived only for you

I recall when love was all we ever talked about
Always together, I love the night
After all the promises
Doesn't matter what anybody says
I love the night
Do you ever think about
How my poor hearts breaking', oh it's breaking'

Tell me baby, do you ever think about
Someone like me, someone like me

(Don't you let it slip away)
I don't want to lie, I don't want to cheat
Swear to God I only want to be your baby

(Hold on to your dreams one more day)
It isn't always what it seems
Another day to make your dreams come true

(Don't you know that here I'll stay)
I don't want to lose, I don't want to cry
Why you gotta be the one who drives me crazy

(Don't you let it slip away)
I wanna say I gotta say
Baby don't let it slip away from you

Every time I think about
Hold on and hiding out I love the night
Holding out cause ya know ya should
Giving' in cause it feels so good I love the nights

Do you ever think about when the nights were magic
And tell me baby do ya ever think about someone like me

(Don't you let it slip away)
I don't want to lie, I don't want to cheat
Swear to God I only want to be your baby

(Hold on to your dreams one more day)
It isn't always what it seems
Another day to make your dreams come true

(Don't you know that here I'll stay)
I don't want to lose, I don't want to cry
Why you gotta be the one to drive me crazy

(Don't you let it slip away)
I wanna say I gotta say
Baby don't let it slip away from you
