When your times are tough
Nothing seems to go your way
When you can shake it loose
Oh, when you got the blues
And you feel it's getting
Yeah! Your time will come
You and I, we're gonna make it
It ain't the first time, won't be the last
I've seen it slip through my fingers
It ain't the first time, won't be the last
I've seen it step through my heart
You wanna make it right, yeah,
Sometimes you can try too hard
You gotta let it flow, yeah,
And at times you don't know
But don't hit that ground
Hey, we still want you around
Just reach out and grab it
Let it go, cause don't you know
I've seen it slipping through my fingers
I've seen it slip through my hands
All we have to do is not quit, stop,
It ain't the first time, won't be the last
I feel it slipping through my fingers
It ain't the first time, won't be the last
I feel it slipping through my hands
It ain't the first time, won't it be the last?
I feel it slip through my hands
