Dolly Parton - Slip Away Today lyrics

(Curly Putman)

You jark back your hand away from mine

And I move my lips away from yours

Then quietly we sit trying to forget

Those deep running thoughts that run wild across our minds.

You quickly stop the words you start to say

And we realize just how close we are

And we both know if we let ourselves go

We'll do something we'll be sorry for.

Slip away today means sorrow tomorrow

It's love we know but we can't keep but yet we like to borrow

Trying to hold back emotions and desires

It's hard to keep from doing something we'll be sorry for.

--- Instrumental ---

My love hungry heart begs for more

Of what your lips hold in store

But our conscience just won't let us at least tonight it kept us

From jumping off the deep end and going too far.

But one of these nights you and I

Will be ruled by the passion of our hearts

And we both know that we let ourselves go

And do something that we'll be sorry for.

Slip away today means sorrow tomorrow

It's love we know but we can't keep but yet we like to borrow

Trying to hold back emotions and desires

It's hard to keep from doing something we'll be sorry for.

It's hard to keep from doing something we'll be sorry for...
