Jeff Finlin - You Slip Sometimes Lyrics

You said you used to take the time you know to listen to my mind
And all the different signs I used to send
But now you barely say hello, it seems you're sinking low
Lower than I think you've ever been

She said 'all I want to say is 'babe I'll mend my ways
As soon as you can whisper my name'
She said 'I'm sorry I've been cruel in breaking all our rules
The rules that seemed to keep our life so safe'

But you know you slip sometimes
You slip sometimes
Just when you think you got it all down, you slip sometimes

I've been keeping clear of darkness
And the angels and the carcasses who used to eat me up with late-night sleaze
Then I caught myself a-sliding, running and a-hiding
From the loving that I thought had set me free

When I finally came around I looked up from the ground
And I saw your silky smile there from the floor
As we walked out arm in arm I caught a little of that old charm
And I whispered very softly back toward the door

You know you slip sometimes
You slip sometimes
Just when you think you got it all down, you slip sometimes
