i told you to disappear
i told you not to be scared
i thought i made it clear
but you were unaware
of the dangers past the door
you just wanted more than i could give
and i'm sorry
but you kept walking

and there'd come a day
when you'd slip away
walk away from me
and all the times we shared
and i never knew
just what i'd do
if you slipped
away

was it something i said?
was it something i did?
that drove you away
and me to this
artificial love
but it felt so right
then the phone rang
and you started
walking

(chorus)

solo

(chorus)
and there'd come a day
when you'd slip away
and you'd fade away from view
til the day that i die
til the end of the trip
you will always lie
you will always
slip
away
away from me
