NEVER LET HER SLIP AWAY
(Andrew Gold)


Andrew Gold - 1978
Undercover - 1992





I talked to my baby on the telephone, long distance
I never would've guessed I could miss someone so bad, yeah
I really only met her 'bout a week ago
But it doesn't seem to matter to my heart, I know
That I love her, I'm hoping that I never recover
'Cause she's good for me
And it would really make me happy
To never let her slip away

Feel like a kid with a teenage crush on a school day (On a school day afternoon)
I feel like the lead in 'Romeo and Juliet', yeah
I'm a little bit dizzy, I'm a little bit scared
I guess I never felt this much aware
That I love her, I'm hoping that I never recover
'Cause she's good for me
And it would really make me happy
To never let her slip away

(Instrumental Break)

I really only met her 'bout a week ago
But it doesn't seem to matter to my heart, I know 
That I love her, I'm hoping that I never recover
Yeah, she's good to me
And it would really make me happy
To never let her slip away

Mmmm, I love her, I'm thinking that I'll never recover
Yeah, she's good for me
I know it's gonna make me happy
To never let her slip away
Oh, I know it's gonna make me happy
To never let her slip away
