Guess it’s just another dream
(m. jagger/k. richards)
That’s slipping away

Each time that I fall asleep
Guess it’s just another dream
It seems I’m just drifting away
That’s slipping away
Just as you have touched my heart
Each time i fall asleep
Babe I wake up and we’re apart, yeah
It seems i’m just drifting away
And it’s slipping away
Just as yo have touched my heart

Babe i wake and we’re apart
Here comes just another day
Yeah and it’s slipping away
That’s drifting away

Every time I draw a breath
Here comes just another day
It’s dying away
That’s drifting away
First the sun and then the moon
Every time i draw a breath
One of them will be around soon
It’s dying away
Slipping away
First the sun and then the moon
Slipping away
One of them will be around soon
Drifting away
Slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away

Just as you have touched my heart
Drifting away
I wake up babe and we’re apart
Slipping away
It seems we’re slipping away

Slipping away
Just as you have touched my heart
Slipping away
I wake up babe and we’re apart

It seems we’re slipping away
All I want is ecstacy
Slipping away
But I ain’t getting much
Slipping away
Just getting off on misery

It seems I’ve lost my touch
All i want is ecstasy

But i ain’t getting much
Well it’s just another song
Just getting off on misery
But it’s slipping away
It seems i’ve lost my touch
Well we didn’t sing it long

‘Cos it’s fading away
Well it’s just another song
First the sun and then the moon
But it’s slipping away
One of them will be ’round soon
We we didn’t sing it long
Slipping away
‘cos it’s fading away
Slipping away
First the sun and then the moon
Slipping away
One of them will be round soon
Slipping away
Slipping away
Slipping away
