Slip Away

By Huey Lewis

I'll slip away
Thats  what I will say
I'll find my own
When no one is home
Locked under ground
Words only make sounds

You caught me falling down.
You caught me falling down...
Catching a fever cause I'm a reciever
Too many distractions to count

I'll slip away
For another day
Trapped under ground
Words only make sounds
Come from the south
Burning right through my mouth

You caught me falling down.
You caught me falling... down...
Catching a fever cause I'm a reciever
Too many distractions to count

I'll slip away
That's all she would say
Out in the new
Gone to find the truth
Comes from the south
All the words in my mouth.

You caught me falling down.
