Let Them Slide
Slightly jazzy folk...
This is actually two half songs stuck together.. can you see the join? (OK, a little bit of thought did go into it...)

Let them slide....
You don’t need them let them slide

I’ll be the doctor, you can be the nurse
In the psychiatrist’s chair, psycho babble psycho verse

Let them slide....[
You don’t need them let them slide

I’m resigned to be discreet to let you have your say
You’re out of time but still on your feet you nearly made my day
Hold on to the memory hold on to the dreams
Not a time for prophecy nothing’s what it seems
chorus
Don’t let them slide.... don’t let them slide
Don’t let them slide
Hold your dreams now you don’t let them slide
Repeat last line
Hold your dreams now you don’t let them slide
