Time Keeps Slipping Away

I've been waiting for your letter
The one you said you sent last week
Too many mistakes in the address
Life is bittersweet

I'm standing at the station
Train coming soon I'm told
Things get better down the line
It's been a long hard road

Time keeps slipping away
I lost another hour today
I was waiting on you, what do I do
Time keeps slipping away

I'm a man of the world
Waiting for the night to fall
'Cause the night life is the life I live
When time means nothing at all

Time keeps slipping away
I lost another hour today
I was waiting on you, what do I do
Time keeps slipping away

So I'm standing on the platform
Train came rolling by
Six o'clock in the morning
Sun's already hanging high

It shines on me and says hey, there
What are you going to do today?
Well, I'm sure not hanging around this place
My time keeps slipping away

Time keeps slipping away
Time keeps slipping away
Time keeps slipping away
Time keeps slipping away
Time keeps slipping away
Time keeps slipping away
Time keeps slipping away
