Sunday School And Cigarettes (slippin' Away)

I've been lost in way back when

In clothes I'll never wear again

Ponytails and paper planes

And climbing up the tall trees

Thinking back to hide and seek,

Everyday seemed like a week

Sunday school and cigarettes

And kissing at the movies

Now it's hard cause

I really thought that time was

Moving slowly, but I found out it was only



Slippin' away (3x)

Slippin' away yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah



One day I found myself with you,

Saw all my girlhood dreams come true

Still, there's other dreams

And nothing lasts forever

I put braid into my hair

But you don't seem to see them there

And in your mind, I think

You're off to California

And it's hard cause I truly though

That I was in your vision

Starry eyes, I see you've been



Slippin' away (3x)

Slippin' away yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah



We are water

We are the sand the wind blows on

Before we're here

We are gone...



And so it turns in simple ways

Now the weeks go by like days

Where's the little girl?

She's gone and so forgotten

And it's strange cause I truly thought

That change was nowhere near me

And all the time I was really



Slippin' away (7x)

I'm slippin' away yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
