My life is spent in strange places Strangers with familiar faces A perfect love affair that time erases On the road to be free My soul is a shadow and it seems to be Slipping away from me Slipping away from me Slipping away from me I cannot follow
My eyes are filled with people’s emptiness Everyone is making fun of old fashioned happiness Ain’t much love around, there’s only loneliness On the road to be free My soul is a shadow and it seems to be Slipping away from me Slipping away from me Slipping away from me I cannot follow
My mind is anxious for the little things And I just can’t seem to reach that place where a free soul sings Same old hang-ups, I got the same old hang-ups, yet still I cling On the road to be free My soul is a shadow and it seems to be Slipping away from me Slipping away from me Slipping away from me
And it’s slipping away, it’s slipping away My soul is a shadow and it’s slipping away from me On the road to be free, it’s slipping away Slipping away from me…
