Faron Young – I Let It Slip Away lyrics
Once I had it then I let it slip away
And if you look at me you'll be looking at a fool
With a heartache that just grows everyday
For I was too blind to see her love was mine
Once I had it but I let it slip away
And if you talk to me you'll be talking to a fool
With a lifetime of tears yet to pay
‘Coz now her love stands out of reach of these hands
Yes I had it but I let it slip away
I tell my heart oh you’re better off
And you didn't need her anyway
That's a good try but it's still just a lie
‘Coz I need her more every day and that’s why
I live my life with the wisdom of a fool
From a lesson that I've learned the hard way
At such a cost oh I played but I lost
Yes I had it but I let it slip away
Yes I had it but I let it slip away
And if you look at me you'll be looking at a fool
With a heartache that just grows everyday
For I was too blind to see her love was mine
Once I had it but I let it slip away
And if you talk to me you'll be talking to a fool
With a lifetime of tears yet to pay
‘Coz now her love stands out of reach of these hands
Yes I had it but I let it slip away
I tell my heart oh you’re better off
And you didn't need her anyway
That's a good try but it's still just a lie
‘Coz I need her more every day and that’s why
I live my life with the wisdom of a fool
From a lesson that I've learned the hard way
At such a cost oh I played but I lost
Yes I had it but I let it slip away
Yes I had it but I let it slip away
