Slip Away - Laurie Anderson[00:00:00]
What's this a little dust in my eye[00:00:25]
Well I'm not the type to cry[00:00:37]
It's four AM I'm standing by the bed where you lie[00:00:46]
Sleeping the sleep of the newborn[00:00:52]
Put my finger to your lips warm air[00:00:59]
Five AM you lift your hand and open it[00:01:14]
Then you slipped away you slipped away[00:01:23]
Oh death that creep that crooked jerk[00:01:32]
He comes he comes walking he comes sneaking[00:01:36]
Down that long irreversible hallway[00:01:40]
Grabs you in your sleep[00:01:45]
I walk outside to the parking lot[00:02:00]
Bright coins of water on the sidewalk[00:02:04]
Big white building where your body lies[00:02:09]
Stands in the middle of the fields icy air[00:02:13]
And after all the shocks the way the heart unlocks[00:02:20]
And ooo we slip away we slip away[00:02:29]
I'm thinking about the way that lost things always come back[00:02:50]
Looking like something else[00:02:57]
A fishing pole a shoe an old shirt a lucky day[00:03:01]
Ooo then they slip away into the remains of the day[00:03:08]
Ooo they slip away they slip away[00:03:16]
I'm thinking how you taught me how to win[00:03:34]
And how to loose[00:03:37]
And how to fight the crippling blues that I was born with[00:03:40]
Bad dreams and nightmares[00:03:44]
Ooo they slip away ooo they slip away into the remains of the day[00:03:49]
I know that sometime I'll stop looking for you[00:04:17]
Stop seeing your face every day[00:04:21]
Bad dreams and nightmares and big bad wolves[00:04:26]
Ooo they slip away into the remains of the day[00:04:30]
Ooo they slip away into the remains of the day[00:04:39]
They slip away[00:04:48]
You told me you had no idea how to die but I saw[00:04:54]
The way the light left your eyes[00:05:03]
And after all the shocks the way the heart unlocks[00:05:07]
And ooo then you slipped away you slipped away[00:05:16]
