I've been missing the good old days
When we talked about travelling
I wish we could be stuck in that daze
Time can be cruel
But its those times that I save
Every photograph that I keep
Is a memory I've made
And now you're slipping slipping away
No longer your mother's child
Not mine anyway
And now you're slipping slipping away
No longer your father's child
Not mine anyway
You will and always be my best friend but how does she see me
Greener grass grows, you follow the trees
Guardian angels will protect you from your thieves
And you say 'pretty monster don't be scared'
Please stay, don't stray for wonder will take you miles away
Love knows no boundaries, don't hurt your head
Hey its only to deceive
If I find a piece of you, it's a dream
I promise I'll learn too
Grown up and undivided truths
There's gonna be nightmares
A few
And now you're slipping slipping away
No longer your mother's child
Not mine anyway
And now you're slipping slipping away
No longer your father's child
Not mine anyway
Please spare your pride
You know you're right
There's nothing I can do
I'm bleeding
Bleeding underwater
And now you're slipping slipping away
No longer your mother's child
Not mine anyway
And now you're slipping slipping away
No longer your father's child
Not mine anyway
