Verse

What would I give for just a few moments 
What would I give just to have you near 
Tell me you would try to slip away somehow 
Oh I need you darling I want to see you right now 

Chorus

Can you slip away, slip away
Slip away, yeah - oh I need you so

Love oh love, how sweet it is
(F Am C Am) Am G
When you still involve it
Let me tell you how sweet it is    

Verse

Now I know it's wrong
The things I ask you to do
But please believe me darling
I don't mean to hurt you
But just can you slip away
Without him knowin you're gone
Baby we could meet somewhere,
Somewhere we both are not known

Chorus

Can you slip away, slip away,
Slip away-ay-ay-ay I need you so

Verse

Oh can you slip away baby
I'd like to see you right now darling
Can you slip away baby
Cause I got to, got to see you
I feel a deep burning inside
Oh I wish you could slip away...
