I cannot let you slip away
But I know now nothing I say
Will make you come back to me

Baby it's you
Who I'm devoted to
Please don't go away
Cause I don't believe that deep down
You really don't wanna stay

And as I watch you slide away
I cannot let you slip away
But I know now nothing I say
Will make you come back to me

Baby it's me
Who's always loved thee
Come back to me
Cause I can't believe for one second
That you're gonna leave me

And as I watch you slide away
I cannot let you slip away
But I know now nothing I say
Will make you come back to me

Baby it's you
Who I'll always be true to
Just say you'll stay
Cause if you go away I'll lose my mind
And I will go astray

And as I watch you slide away
I cannot let you slip away
But I know now nothing I say
Will make you come back to me

As I watch you slide away
I cannot let you slip away
But I know now nothing I say
Will make you come back to me
