Lucie Silvas Sliding Down song lyrics

Sliding Down - (L.Silvas/R.Lobb)

Why throw it all away

It wasn't easy to obtain

How do you keep your patience when I do it over and over again?

And God it seems so hard

Cause nothing in life makes sense when you tear it apart

When I try moving on

It doesn't mean my faith is gone

It's nothing more than distance

Maybe that will keep us strong

No I won't let you down

Cause nothing in life makes sense when you're not around

And if I choose

To keep on climbing, climbing the ladder

Will I loose what I've found?

I'm gonna need you

There at the bottom, arms wide open

Ready to catch me when I'm sliding down

And nothing comes for free

And now everything I see

Is how bad I try to take your place and all the love you give to me

Baby if I win I'll loose

Cause nothing I have even matters if I don't have you

If I don't have you

And if I choose

To keep on climbing, climbing the ladder

Will I loose what I've found?

I'm gonna need you

There at the bottom, arms wide open

Ready to catch me when I'm sliding down

And I know

I'm not giving you what you want

I'm not giving you what you need

With the faith of a little bird

Fly away to opportunity

And I roll the dice and I don't know which side up

Always gonna fall

And even though each day I get a little bit closer I might end up with nothing at all

And if I choose

To keep on climbing, climbing the ladder

Will I loose what I've found?

I'm gonna need you

There at the bottom, arms wide open

Ready to catch me when I'm sliding down

Oh if I choose

To keep on climbing, climbing the ladder

Will I loose what I've found?

I'm gonna need you

There at the bottom, arms wide open

Ready to catch me when I'm sliding down

Ready to catch me when I'm sliding down

Why throw it all away

It wasn't easy to obtain

How do you keep your patience when I do it over and over again?
