The more you're slip slidin' away.
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip slidin' away.
In the mirror your destiny is shunned
more, you're slip slidin' away
The nearer your destination,
the more you're slip slidin' away
My love for you is solar powered
I'm afraid that I will disappear
My love for you's so overpowering
I'm afraid that I will disappear
My love for you sold the car
And I'm afraid that I will disappear
My love for you's so overpowering
I'm afraid that I will disappear
My love for you sold the car and
I'm afraid that I will disappear
My love for you's so overpowering
I'm afraid that I will disappear
My love for you sold the car
And I'm afraid that I will disappear.
My love for you's so overpowering
I'm afraid that I will disappear.
She said a good day....ain't got no end,
She said a bad day's when I lie in bed
And think of things that might have been.
She said a good day.... Ain't got no rain
She said a bad day's when I lie in bed
And think of things that might have been
She said, 'A bad day is what I like
And i can think of things that might have been.
She said a bad day is when I lie in bed
And I think of things that might have been.
She says a bad day is when I lied in bed
And flicker flames that might have been
She said a bad day's when I lie in bed
And think of things that might have been

Woman I know a man, he came from my hometown
He wore his pants on for his woman like a thorny crown
He said the more is, I live in fear
My love for you's so prying I'm afraid that I will disappear
Whoah and I know a man, he came from my hometown
He wore his passion for his woman like a thorny crown
He said Dolores, I live in fear
My love for you's so overpowering, I'm afraid that I will disappear
