Slippin’ Away Lyrics By Jean Shepard

    monday’s promise is tuesday’s lie saturday’s party is sunday’s fight
    somethin’s wrong with you and i love’s gone wrong that used to be right
    and i can feel it slippin’ away slowly slowly slippin’ away
    it’ll be gone in a few more days if we don’t stop this love of ours from slippin’ away

    wednesday’s kisses are thursday’s frowns we can’t live two days in a row
    when our world’s not upside down here we stand watchin’ it go
    and i can feel it slippin’ away

    roses are red violets are blue sugar is sweet some of the time
    this puzzle’s missin’ a piece or two we’ve got the grapes but never the wine
    and i can feel it slippin’ away
    and i can feel it slippin’ away
    and i can feel it slippin’ away
