Slip Away Today - Porter Wagoner/Dolly Parton

作词：Curly Putman

作曲：Curly Putman

You jark back your hand away from mine

And I move my lips away from yours

Then quietly we sit trying to forget

Those deep running thoughts

that run wild across our minds

You quickly stop the words you start to say

And we realize just how close we are

And we both know if we let ourselves go

We'll do something we'll be sorry for

Slip away today means sorrow tomorrow

It's love we know but we can't keep

but yet we like to borrow

Trying to hold back emotions and desires

It's hard to keep from doing something we'll be sorry for

My love hungry heart begs for more

Of what your lips hold in store

But our conscience just won't

let us at least tonight it kept us

From jumping off the deep end and going too far

But one of these nights you and I

Will be ruled by the passion of our hearts

And we both know that we let ourselves go

And do something that we'll be sorry for

Slip away today means sorrow tomorrow

It's love we know but we can't keep

but yet we like to borrow

Trying to hold back emotions and desires

It's hard to keep from doing something we'll be sorry for

It's hard to keep from doing something we'll be sorry for
