Dm 
Watching every thing you do 
Dm 
But I just can't help but feeling 
Dm               G             C 
Someone else is stealing you away from me 
 
 
I see it written in your eyes 
And you confirm it with your lies 
And the web you weave can hold me 
I'd rather that you toldme where you want to be

Oooooh you're slipping away from me

And it's breaking me in two

Watching you slipping away
