Lyrics

Like a dream on the ocean Always drifting away And I can't catch up She just slips away, (on the tide) Sometimes a great notion Can lead us astray So weak to devotion' So strong to deny Oh baby baby won't you let me ride -take me up on your sailboat ride Come on now angels are on your side But she slips away on the tide Like mercury gliding A silver teardrop that pours And i can't hold on Through my fingers she falls At the foot of the mountain Such a long way to climb How will i ever get up there ? Though i know i must try Oh baby baby won't you let me ride Take me up on your sailboat ride Come on now angels are on your side But she slips away Oh never stays Yeah she slips away Oh and she slips away (repeat last two lines ad lib)
