Vince Gill – Don’t Let Our Love Start Slippin’ Away Lyrics
[Verse 1: Vince Gill ]
We’ve been up
All night long
Trying to solve a problem
Hell it’s almost dawn
Ain’t no time for sleepin’
If our love is wearin’ thin
Cause I ain’t givin’ up
And you ain’t givin’ in
[Chorus: Vince Gill ]
Don’t let our love start slippin’
Love start slippin’ away
Cause the life we’ve been livin’
Gets harder everyday
Don’t let our love start slippin’
Love start slippin’ away
[Verse 2:Vince Gill ]
A wounded love
Walks a real thin line
And no communication
Will kill it every time
So open up your heart
Baby we can work it out
Cause we’ve got the kind of love
People dream about
[Chorus- Vince Gill ]
Don’t let our love start slippin’
Love start slippin’ away
Cause the life we’ve been livin’
Gets harder everyday
Don’t let our love start slippin’
Love start slippin’ away
[Outro: -Vince Gill ]
It’s past the point of right or wrong
Let’s find a way to just hold on
[Chorus- Vince Gill ]
Don’t let our love start slippin’
Love start slippin’ away
Cause the life we’ve been livin’
Gets harder everyday
Don’t let our love start slippin’
Love start slippin’ away
Don’t let our love start slippin’
Love start slippin’ away
