Spirit Slips Away lyrics

When the spirit slips away

There's nothing you can do, there's nothing you can say

May the angels be watching over you

When your spirit slips away

When the darkness starts to fall

You're on your own and your back's against the wall

May the angels bring their flame to you

When your spirit slips away

And when the music that makes you blue

Unfolds its secrets, the mysteries are told to you

May the angels sing rejoice to you

That fateful day when your spirit slips away
