eleanor mcevoy - slipping away lyrics
[verse 1]
someone said they’d light a candle
another said they’d say a prayer
it would take more than that to save him now
it would take more than that somehow
[verse 2]
and the nights go by so slowly
suffering robs him of his sleep
he rescues what little life is in his hands
taking what comfort he can
[chorus]
slipping away, oh how he’s suffering with it
slipping away, how hard it’s been
saving the life he can save
drinking every aching mouthful
slipping away
slipping like sand through your hand
[verse 3]
heaven holds no higher promise
than release and sweet relief
even relief would be a blessing now
even release would help somehow
[verse 4]
kiss good-bye to sounds of weeping
kiss good-bye to tears of pain
and if you can pray then pray for what he’d chose
’cause there’s not a god that would refuse
[chorus]
slipping away, oh how he’s suffering with it
slipping away, how hard it’s been
saving the life he can save
drinking every aching mouthful
slipping away
slipping like sand through your hand
[chorus]
slipping away, oh how he’s suffering with it
slipping away, how hard it’s been
saving the life he can save
drinking every aching mouthful
slipping away
slipping like sand through your hand
slipping away, oh, slipping away
