Slipping Away
Taylor Swift

Verse 1:
I reach for your hand, but it fades like a dream,
Whispers of laughter dance in the moonlight’s beam.
Your smile, so bright, but it’s just out of view,
With every step closer, I’m losing you too.

Chorus:
You’re slipping away, like sand in my hands,
A love that was golden, now shifts like dry lands.
I’m fighting the silence, I’m holding my breath,
A battle for love that feels like a death.

Verse 2:
We painted our hopes on the walls of this room,
But shadows grow heavy, and they’re chasing the bloom.
We built up a castle with dreams made of glass,
Now I watch as you turn, and I know this won’t last.

Chorus:
You’re slipping away, like sand in my hands,
A love that was golden, now shifts like dry lands.
I’m fighting the silence, I’m holding my breath,
A battle for love that feels like a death.

Bridge:
If I could just tether the stars in your eyes,
If I could rewrite our fate and disguise,
But love isn’t clinging, it’s learning to fly,
Yet here I am begging, while you say goodbye.

Chorus:
You’re slipping away, like sand in my hands,
A love that was golden, now shifts like dry lands.
I’m fighting the silence, I’m holding my breath,
A battle for love that feels like a death.

Outro:
So I gather my pieces, my heart on display,
I’ll cherish the moments, though you drift away.
With every goodbye pulls me deeper in pain,
But I’ll hold onto memories, hope you’ll do the same.
