Slippin' On Your Way – © Richard Ruane 2004

You tell me darling that your love is pure
That the world would end before you’d ever feel unsure
But it hardly seem to matter what you say
Every day, every day
I know you’re only slippin' on your way

You tell me darling that our love is bright
But I can see you say it just to be polite
Oh it hardly seems to matter what you say
Every day, oh every day
I know you’re only slippin' on your way

Some people only tell you
What you want to hear
Some people never seem
To make their meaning clear
(darling please now be sincere)

Tell me darling, don’t you lead me on
In a year will you be here, or will you be long gone
Oh it hardly seems to matter what you say
Every day, every day
I know you’re only slippin' on your way

Tell me darling, am I wrong or right
To ask you what it is you really feel tonight
Oh it hardly seems to matter what you say
Every day, every day
I know you’re only slippin' on your way
