And I know a father who had a son
He longed to tell him all the reasons for the things he’d done
He came a long way just to explain
He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping
Then he turned around and headed home again
He's Slip sliding , slip sliding away
You know the nearer your destination, the more you're slip sliding away
I knew a man who went to jail most voluntarily
Expecting abuses unknown by mortal men to see
He can't explain why
He says he expects to turn to dust
I know the only thing forever lasting is rust
He's Slip sliding , slip sliding away
You know the nearer your destination, the more you're slip sliding away
