slipping through my fingers - declan mckenna lyrics
[verse 1]
schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
waving goodbye with an absent*minded smile
i watch her go with a surge of that well*known sadness
and i have to sit down for a while
[pre*chorus]
the feeling that i’m losing her forever
while never really entering her world
i’m glad whenever i can share her laughter
that funny little girl
[chorus]
slipping through my fingers all the time
i try to capture every minute
the feeling in it
slipping through my fingеrs all the time
do i really see what’s in hеr mind?
each time i think i’m close to knowing
she keeps on growing
slipping through my fingers all the time
[verse 2]
sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table
barely awake, i let precious time go by
then when she’s gone, there’s that old melancholy feeling
and a sense of guilt i can’t deny
[pre*chorus]
what happened to our wonderful adventures
the places i had planned for us to go?
well, some of that we did, but most we didn’t
and why, i just don’t know
[chorus]
slipping through my fingers all the time
i try to capture every minute
the feeling in it
slipping through my fingers all the time
do i really see what’s in her mind?
each time i think i’m close to knowing
she keeps on growing
slipping through my fingers all the time
[bridge]
sometimes i wish that i could freeze the picture
and save it from the funny tricks of time
slipping through my fingers
[interlude]
[outro]
schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
waving goodbye with an absent*minded smile
