Slipped Away lyrics

I dreamt last night, you called my name It felt like something so far away Your voice was soft, a fleeting spark A light that guided me in the dark In that dream, you weren't gone Not the echo you'd become You were here, in a way that I had not seen in years I reached for the friend I thought I lost Felt your warmth within the dark And my heart wished you could stay But you slipped away Slipped away Slipped away Slipped away The morning came, and you were gone Just like the way you've been for so long I tell myself I'm doing fine But I cling to the past left behind In that dream, you weren't gone Not the echo you'd become You were here, in a way that I had not seen in years I've waited long for you to hear Hold my hand, don't disappear Stay with me, I cannot lose you again Please, don't slip away Don't slip away Please, don't slip away Don't slip away
