Sunday School And Cigarettes (slippin` Away) Lyrics

Sunday School And Cigarettes (slippin` Away) lyrics

I've been lost in way-back-when, in clothes I'll never wear again 

Pony-tails and paper planes and climbing up the tall trees 

Thinking back to hide-and-seek, everyday seemed like a week 

Sunday school and cigarettes and kissing at the movies 

And it's hard cause I really thought that time was moving slowly 

But I found out it was only 

Slippin' away 



One day I found myself with you, saw all my girlhood dreams come true 

Still, there're other dreams and nothing lasts forever 

I put braids into my hair, but you don't seem to see them there 

And in your mind, I think, you're off to California 

And it's hard cause I really thought that I was in your vision 

Starry eyes, I see that you've been 

Slippin' away 



We are water, we are the sand the wind blows on 

Before we're here, we are gone 

gone, gone 



So it turns in simple ways, now the weeks go by like days 

Where's that little girl? She's gone and so forgotten 

And it's strange cause I truly thought that change was nowhere near me 

And all the time I was really 

Slippin' away
