How’d I Know That Love Would Slip Away Songtext
von Deniece Williams

Baby, just don′t lie there
Baby, please don't stare
I can′t help if I feel this way
Baby, I've been crying
Baby, I've been trying
A failing love I tried to save, yeah

How′d I know that love would slip away?
Slip away (Hey, hey, hey)
How′d I know that love would slip away?
Would slip away, slip away (Hey, hey, hey)


You always made some promises
You knew you'd never keep
When you said you only didn′t
You knew that was sweet
Tried to understand you
I did the best I could
But boy, I can't keep loving you
The way I said I would

How′d I know that love would slip away?
Would slip away, slip away (Hey, hey, hey)
How'd I know that love would slip away?
It would slip away, yeah (Hey, hey, hey)

How′d I know that love would slip away?
Broken promises
I didn't know
I thought love was here to stay
Oh, you lied to me
