lyrics

they always seem to come and go
a fleeting moment on a slippery slope
just when I think of found the one
another moment and I can't go on

I'm so tired
all the emptiness aside
fill me up with gin
and throw a matchstick in
shed some light

and I'm so humbled by
the grandness of it all
we build these homes
raise kids of our own
hang their pictures up on the wall

they always seem to come and go
a fleeting moment on a slippery slope
just when I think of found the one
another moment and I can't go on

in a week or two
I'd like to pack my bags
get on a plane
never be seen again
would that be so bad

and in a while from now
I'd like to have it made
pretty girls on my arms
I'd be like a movie star
wouldn't that be great

they always seem to come and go
a fleeting moment on a slippery slope
just when I think of found the one
another moment and I can't go on

ever since you left
the path has been so unclear
I've had women in my bed
while I've had you in my head
its this loneliness that I fear

and I'm so terrified
of losing all control
flying off the track
never quite getting back
swallow me up whole

they always seem to come and go
a fleeting moment on a slippery slope
just when I think of found the one
another moment and I can't go on
