Slip Away lyrics

PLAY ULTRAVOX Slip Away video Enter me gently
I break in the light
Cover my eyes
With the rags of my life
Was I dreaming?
Or did you say:
"The frontiers are falling
It`s time to be slipping away
Let`s slip away
Let`s slip away"

All things fall from me
The bonds and the veils
All things blow by me
My sorrows have sails
Was I dreaming?
Or did you say:
"The empires are fading
It`s time to be slipping away
Let`s slip away
Let`s slip away"

What am I to do?
Don`t leave me
What is there to say?
I really...
We`re just wasting time
Let the night takes its place
Colour my eyes
With the dusk of this wonderful day
Let`s slip away
Let`s slip away

Letters from lovers
Are lining my grave (?)
Some came too early
And some came too late
Were you speaking?
Or did I say:
"The frontiers have fallen
It`s time to be slipping away
As you call me
My hands they fall open
My mouth it is frozen
The (???) stumbles is (???)
I`m falling slow-motion
Dissolve"
