The Slim (BBC Radio Session) - Sugar

Do you know where you’re going?

Do you know where you’ve been?

Is this simple, is this simple?

The chances seemed so slim

In a cloud, is it cloudy?

You’ve clouded up again

Your perception, your decision

Your decision

Behind, I’m left behind

Oh, I’m left behind, I’m left behind

It’s a matter of time

Your protection from ejection

My rejection

Protection from a slide

Projection from a slide

Did it all seem so easy?

So easy to concede

Giving in, giving in

The chances seemed so slim

In a moment, just a moment

Oh, I felt you rushing in

You were rushing, I am crushing

Your rush to cruise this time

Oh, I’m left behind

Left behind, I’m left behind

It’s a matter of time

Your protection from injection

My rejection

Protection from a slide

Projection from a slide

And I with your breath on my pillow

And I with the memory

Do I get to wait it out never put it away?

When you left with your death

I felt empty when I looked back

On my pillow, what you used to say?

What you used to say?

Behind, I’m left behind

Behind, I’m left behind

Left behind

I with your breath on my pillow

I with the memory, I get to wait

It out never put it away

When you’re left with your death

I felt anger when I looked back

On my pillow what you used to say?

What you used to say?

And I felt your breath for a moment

And I heard your voice for a moment

Then I looked back

On my pillow what you used to say?

What we used to say?

The chances seemed so slim

The chances used to be so slim

Now, I swim alone, the slim alone

The slim alone, the slim alone

To honor and obey

To cherish and to worship

In sickness and in health

For richer, for poorer, for anything

Until death do us part
