Slip Away Lyrics

All the things you wanna do
Everything you held on to let it slip away
And today's the day I'm gonna go away away lift it off my shoulders
And today's the day I'm gonna go away, away, let it slip away, let it slip away

Why have I waited so long (to give it all away)
Why have I waited so long

And today's the day I'm gonna go away away lift it off my shoulders
And today's the day I'm gonna go away, away, let it slip away, let it slip away

Why have I waited so long (to give it all away)
Why have I waited so long
Why have I waited so long (to give it all away)
Why have I waited so long

Let it slip away
All the things you wanna do and everything you held on to
Let it slip away
Today's the day not tomorrow, but to days the day
Let it slip away let it slip away

I can't take it anymore (I can't take this)
no I can't take this anymore (I can't take it)
I can't take this anymore

Let it slip away (let it slip away)
Let it slip away (All the things you wanna do and everything you held on to)
Let it slip away (let it slip away)

All the things you wanna do
Everything you held on to let it slip away
And today's the day I'm gonna go away away lift it off my shoulders
And today's the day I'm gonna go away, away, let it slip away, let it slip away

Why have I waited so long (to give it all away)
Why have I waited so long

And today's the day I'm gonna go away away lift it off my shoulders
And today's the day I'm gonna go away, away, let it slip away, let it slip away

Why have I waited so long (to give it all away)
Why have I waited so long
Why have I waited so long (to give it all away)
Why have I waited so long

Let it slip away
All the things you wanna do and everything you held on to
Let it slip away
Today's the day not tomorrow, but to days the day
Let it slip away let it slip away

I can't take it anymore (I can't take this)
no I can't take this anymore (I can't take it)
I can't take this anymore

Let it slip away (let it slip away)
Let it slip away (All the things you wanna do and everything you held on to)
Let it slip away (let it slip away)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
