Slip Away Today Lyrics - Dolly Parton

You jark back your hand away from mine 

And I move my lips away from yours 

Then quietly we sit trying to forget 

Those deep running thoughts that run wild across our minds

From MetroLyrics to You: Our Classic Christmas Playlist 

You quickly stop the words you start to say 

And we realize just how close we are 

And we both know if we let ourselves go 

We'll do something we'll be sorry for 

Slip away today means sorrow tomorrow 

It's love we know but we can't keep but yet we like to borrow 

Trying to hold back emotions and desires 

It's hard to keep from doing something we'll be sorry for 

[ ac.guitar ] 

My love hungry heart begs for more 

Of what your lips hold in store 

But our conscience just won't let us at least tonight it kept us 

From jumping off the deep end and going too far 

Photos 

But one of these nights you and I 

Will be ruled by the passion of our hearts 

And we both know that we let ourselves go 

And do something that we'll be sorry for 

Slip away today means sorrow tomorrow... 

It's hard to keep from doing something we'll be sorry for
