Labrats - Slipping Away

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Ten years old with mud-stained dreams,
Summer days were bursting at the seams.
Sixteen wild, sneaking out at night,
Racing stars, everything felt right.
[Pre-Chorus]
Time was honey, sweet and slow,
Now it's lightning, watch it go!
[Chorus]
Slipping away, slipping away,
Years keep spinning like a hurricane.
Childhood fades but the fire remains,
Slipping away, slipping away,
But I'm dancing - anyway!
[Verse 2]
Twenty-something, neon nights,
Making promises under city lights.
Now I'm grown with stories in my eyes,
Kids are laughing while the clock just flies.
[Pre-Chorus]
Time was honey, sweet and slow,
Now it's lightning, watch it go!
[Chorus]
Slipping away, slipping away,
Years keep spinning like a hurricane.
Childhood fades but the fire remains,
Slipping away, slipping away,
But I'm dancing - anyway!

[Instrumental]

[Final Chorus]
Slipping away, slipping away,
Years keep spinning like a hurricane.
Growing older but I feel no pain,
Slipping away, slipping away,
But I'm dancing - anyway!
[Outro]
(Soft, building to big finish)
Time keeps ticking, ticking, ticking...
But I'm living, living, living!
Slipping away... but I'm here to stay!
