Song is an original composition by Richard Holland with a previous band called Fox Holland. Original version was recorded in 1993. Arrangements were established to have Tiffanie Holland record the song in 2004 at a studio belonging to Mike Renneker (rennsongs.com), who superbly produced the whole thing himself . Rhonda Renneker updated the lyrics to match Tiffanie's youthful and vibrant personality. The end result was fantastic!
IT ACHIEVED EXCELLENT RESULTS ON A CONTEST WEBSITE GOING UP VERY FAR:

THE FIRST BREAK UP AND HOW HEAVILY IT MAKES YOU LOSE SIGHT OF YOURSELF.

IS THERE AN ANSWER
OR IS THIS REALLY THE END
I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT WE COULD EVER BE OVER
I ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT WE WERE SUCH GOOD FRIENDS
YOU USED TO TELL ME YOUR PLANS AND SCHEMES
WE TALKED FOR HOURS ABOUT EVERYTHING
NOW YOU NEVER CALL ME AT ALL
OPEN A BOOK AND I SEARCH FOR TRUTH
BUT ALL MY THOUGHTS KEEP RUNNING BACK TO YOU
CAN’T FIND A REASON FOR ANYTHING
SKATING AROUND MY EVERY HOPE AND DREAM
I’M SLIPPING AWAY
FALLING OFF A BROKEN HEART
SLIPPING AWAY FROM MY LOVE RIGHT NOW
I’M SLIPPING AWAY
FALLING DOWN A HOPELESS START
I’M SLIPPING AWAY FROM MYSELF SOMEHOW
TOO MANY QUESTIONS
AND I JUST DON’T HAVE A CLUE
YOU LEFT ME WITH NOTHING BUT YOU’RE MEMORIES
WHEN I GAVE ALL OF MY HEART TO FIND YOU
YOU MAKE EXCUSES I JUST NEED YOUR HAND
YOU’VE DISAPPEARED AND I CAN’T PRETEND
I’M NOT READY TO LET YOU GO
I CLOSE THE BOOK AND JUST START TO CRY
TRYING TO LET GO OF THIS EMPTINESS INSIDE
WILL I FIND MY WAY EVENTUALLY
DRIFTING ALONG UPON THIS ENDLESS SEA
I’M SLIPPING AWAY
FALLING OFF A BROKEN HEART
SLIPPING AWAY FROM MY LOVE RIGHT NOW
I’M SLIPPING AWAY
FALLING DOWN A HOPELESS START
I’M SLIPPING AWAY FROM MYSELF SOMEHOW
WHY CAN’T WE STILL BE FRIENDS
WHY MUST THIS BE THE END
I CLOSE THE BOOK AND JUST START TO CRY
TRYING TO LET GO OF THIS EMPTINESS INSIDE
WILL I FIND MY WAY EVENTUALLY
DRIFTING ALONG UPON THIS ENDLESS SEA
I’M SLIPPING AWAY
FALLING OFF A BROKEN HEART
SLIPPING AWAY FROM MY LOVE RIGHT NOW
I’M SLIPPING AWAY
FALLING DOWN A HOPELESS START
I’M SLIPPING AWAY FROM MYSELF SOMEHOW
I’M SLIPPING AWAY
FALLING OFF A BROKEN HEART
SLIPPING AWAY FROM MY LOVE RIGHT NOW
I’M SLIPPING AWAY
FALLING DOWN A HOPELESS START
I’M SLIPPING AWAY FROM MYSELF SOMEHOW
I’M SLIPPING AWAY
FALLING OFF A BROKEN HEART
