Slip Away

Lyrics

[Intro] I have a hold of everything I've ever wanted [Verse 1] Will somebody please tell me what to say? I'm lost for words and I can't seem to find a way Around the awful truth The terrible truth is I'm tired of running from [Pre-Chorus] You are, the only reason I would stay And you are the only thing that's Pushing me away [Chorus] Will you please stop asking me to stay When you know it has to (You know its has to) You know it has to be this way I have a hold of everything I've ever wanted I won't let it slip away [Verse 2] I can't stand it when you're yelling over me I try to speak, calm you down but it's killing me To dance around the truth The terrible truth is I'm tired of running from [Pre-Chorus] You are, the only reason I would stay And you are the only thing that's Pushing me away [Chorus] Will you please stop asking me to stay When you know it has to (You know it has to) You know it has to be this way I have a hold of everything I've ever wanted I won't let it slip away [Bridge] I couldn't tell if you were glad that it was over I should have stayed the night Just one more night To make sure that you knew that I'd come back And I could see it in your eyes If it was up to you you'd rather have me home But it's not your choice I wish I didn't have to do this on my own I wish I didn't have to do this on my own I can't do this on my own I can't do this on my own [Pre-Chorus] Will you please stop asking me to stay When you know it has to You know it has to be this way (This way) [Chorus] Will you please stop asking me to stay When you know it has to (You know it has to) You know it has to be this way I have a hold of everything I've ever wanted I won't let it slip away
