Let It Slip Away

Let It Slip Away

John Hiatt



Love only stays for a little while baby

That's what I said cause I was scared

Too scared to say what you mean to me baby

Too afraid to show how much I cared



Feel love well I couldn't be here

So you just packed up and said goodbye

I feel love but now it's too late

And all I do is cry



CHORUS:

Cause I know that your memory lingers

I think about you night and day

I know from the tips of my fingers

I had your love but I let it slip away

I had your love but I let it slip away



Could not have your heart any day pretty baby

You could be here now and it's killin' me

I'm standing all alone in the way pretty baby

In the way of love that was meant to be



I know cause your memory lingers

I think about you night and day

I know from the tips of my fingers

I had your love but I let it slip away

I had your love but I let it slip away



Feel love well I couldn't be here

So you packed it up and said goodbye

I feel love but now it's too late

And all I do is cry



Cause I know that your memory lingers

I think about you night and day

I know from the tips of my fingers

I had your love but I let it slip away

I know that your memory lingers

I think about you night and day

I know from the tips of my fingers

I had your love but I let it slip away

I had your love but I let it slip away
