Slipping Away lyrics - Mariah Carey

So far, so far

You're slipping away, away

You're slipping away from the life and the love we made

Baby, I'm so afraid

So far, so far, so far

You're slipping away, away

You're slipping right out of my grasp

When you're fading fast it seems

You know you're slipping away from me

I keep on reaching and I

I keep on trying

But you never even hold me

And it seems like you don't know me, baby

I keep on yearning and I

I guess I'm learning

That it's just a losing fight

'Cause there's no passion in your eyes

So far, so far

You're slipping away, away

Slipping away from the life and the love we made

Baby, I'm so afraid

So far, so far, so far

You're slipping away, away

Slipping right out of my grasp

When you're fading fast it seems

You know you're slipping away from me

I keep denying that our

Our love is dying

But it's all a big charade

And it's a fruitless game to play

I can't remember when you

You last were tender

And it's always touch and go

The silence chills me to the bone

So far, so far

You're slipping away, away

You're slipping away from the life and the love we made

Baby, I'm so afraid

So far, so far, so far

You're slipping away, away

Slipping right out of my grasp

When you're fading fast it seems

When you're slipping away from me

Away, away, away, away, yeah

Hey, yeah

Further, further (Further, further)

Ooh, yeah

You're so far

Time after time I reach for you

Try and I try, but you're so aloof

Where is the boy that you used to be?

Baby, you're slipping away from me (You're so far)

Time after time I reach for you

Try and I try, but you're so aloof (Baby, baby, baby)

Where is the boy that you used to be?

Baby, you're slipping away from me (You're so far)

So far, so far

You're slipping away, away

Slipping away from what we had

Truly, I just don't understand (You're so far)

So far, so far, so far

You're slipping away, away

You're slipping right out of my grasp

When you're fading so fast it seems

You know you're slipping away

Time after time I reach for you

Try and I try, but you're so aloof

Where is the boy that you used to be?

Baby, you're slipping away from me

Time after time I reach for you (So far, so far)

Try and I try, but you're so aloof (Yeah)

Where is the boy that you used to be?

Baby, you're slipping away from me (Baby, baby, baby)

Time after time I reach for you (So far)

Try and I try but you're so aloof

Where is the boy that you used to be?

Baby, you're slipping away from me (Yeah, yeah)

Time after time I reach for you (So far, so far)

Try and I try but you're so aloof (So far)

Where is the boy that you used to be?

Baby, you're slipping away from me

Time after time I reach for you

Try and I try, but you're so aloof
