I’ve been tossin’ and turnin’ – my heart has been burnin’ all last night
Can’t sleep a wink and I’m thinkin’ that something just ain’t right
It’s time for a change
Time to rearrange
To find out what it’s all about – and ease the pain
We’ve been rollin’ and tumblin’, slippin’ and stumblin’ together
But the pleasure is past and it couldn’t have lasted forever
We’re stuck in a groove
Afraid to move
It’s kinda rough, but there’s not enough that’s left to lose
And we can’t stop the time – oh time
Slippin’ away
Every day
Time’s just slippin’ away
Talkin’ it through as we used to do would be just great
But the status quo has got to go – or it’s too late
I’m not messin’ around
Got my feet on the ground
I know – we gotta let it go – just lay it down
And no-one stops the time – oh time
From slippin’ away
A little bit every day
Time is slippin’ away
Slippin’ away
Slippin’ away
Slippin’ away
The best is over – we’re taking each other for granted
And I’ve said it before, but now I’m sure that I meant it
We both agree
How it’s gonna be
We can’t win in the state we’re in – not till we’re free
And nothing stops the time – oh time
Slippin’ away
A little bit every day
Time is slippin’ away
Slippin’ away
Slippin’ away
Slippin’ away
Slippin’ away
Slippin’ away
Slippin’ away
