did what you wanted me to
to try and make you mine
tried to make you stay
I gave it all away
but there you go into the wild open
slippin' away

tried to make you feel
what lovin' ought to feel
for you it's not the same
you threw it all away
so there you go into the wild open
slippin' away
you're slippin' away from me

slippin' away

so how was I to know
easy come, easy go
there ain't no stoppin' you
let wild rivers flow
so there you go into the wild open
slippin' away
you're slippin' away from me
