Slip Away

[Verse 1]
Sometimes you need a lover
Sometimes you just need a friend
Sometimes you just need someone
Upon whom you can depend

[Verse 2]
Sometimes the heart gets hungry
And you're just too weak to fight
You go out and find a stranger
To help you keep away the night

[Chorus]
Love's elusive as a shadow
Love's as restless as the wind
Don't try to hold on
It'll slip away again

[Verse 3]
We're all looking for the same thing
Sometimes it's so hard to choose
Between the ones who really love you
And the ones who say they do

[Verse 4]
But don't stop looking 'til you find it
Don't stop looking 'til you do
Might be out there in the distance
Might be standing next to you

[Chorus]
Love's elusive as a shadow
Love's as restless as the wind
Don't try to hold on
It'll slip away

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 5]
Sometimes you need a lover
Sometimes you just need a friend
Sometimes the heart gets hungry
And it must be fed again

[Chorus]
Love's elusive as a shadow
Love's as restless as the wind
Don't try to hold on
It'll slip away
Love's elusive as a shadow
Love's as restless as the wind
Don't try to hold on
It'll slip away again
