Lyrics:
Slip slidin’ away
Slip slidin’ away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you’re slip slidin’ away
I know a man
He came from my hometown
He wore his passion for his woman
Like a thorny crown
He said, “Delores, I live in fear
My love for you’s so overpowering
I’m afraid that I will disappear”

It's 1978, 4 AM on a Friday night, and I have this playing softly on my stereo after everyone is asleep.
It's 2024, 8 PM on a Friday night, and I'm here alone in the condo still able to sing this word-for-word since I was ten.
4 a.m. is not Friday night.
@@MyBelch always someone like you to reply with crap on good comments...smh
@@MyBelchwas about to say loll
He wore his passion for his woman like a thorny crown. What a lyric!!!!!
The phrase "The Dolores Syndrome" has become a part of my culture as a result of this verse.
JESUS wore HIS for you & me....
No one can write lyrics like Paul Simon. This one is right up there with, "Sonny sits by the window and thinks to himself, how it's strange that some rooms are like cages..."
Believe we're gliding down the highway when in fact we're slip sliding away -
Paul Simon is the greatest singer-songwriter that has ever lived AND we will never see another of higher quality. He was born a master and is a living legend. Music doesn't get any better than this and that's a fact. The way musical energy flows through and out of Paul is extremely powerful... much like our SUN. Extremely rare.....
The older I get the more I appreciate this song.
“The nearer your destination, you know the more you’re slip sliding away.” So true. Love this song.
Pretty heavy huh? and so true without being morbid. Love this tune
Thank you Paul!
Best of times those you shared
Best times show that you cared
Best of times enjoy they are rare
Best of times behind you prepare
For Best of times is a rocking chair
Paul Simon is the best singer/songwriter that ever lived. Change my mind.
I probably won't change your mind, but I can propose another to that lofty category, that they may share the title: Freddie Mercury.
John Prine. Paul is great, but John is the best. Bob Dylan agrees with me, calling songs like Sam Stone "Pure Proustian Existentialism."
Carol King.
Part of the reason i listen to older music as a Gen Z is because of the sweet comments of older generations sharing their memories and meaningful stories that connect to these songs ❤
You smart for13 keep that wisdom it will bring you piece. Just have to live right
@@builtbyrecoverytexas thank you very much 🩷
That's fabulous, friend - you have excellent taste...as a GenX I grew up with Paul's music - as a musician myself, he's remained one of my greatest influences...his work is the best of the best - good luck to you ❤
@@robertcronin6603 thank you! My parents are gen x and listen to his music (that's how I found it lol.) I also was a big elvis fan a few years ago, as well as the Beatles, Billy Joel, and much more because of my parents ♥ these days I'm more into classical, which my parents definitely don't listen to lol
I have great faith in you. ❤😊
"I know a father who had a son..He longed to tell him all the reasons for the things he done.. He came a long way just to explain.. Kissed his boy as he lay sleeping then turned around and headed home again" my dad did that very thing after him my mom split up. Didnt see him for a year and then he came to see me while i was sleeping one night. Miss you pops R.I.P. Jeff Scott Sr. Jan 20th 1965 - Nov 15th 2012. 🤘✌❤
@jeffery Scott good song to rmbr..promice brother peace out
Whoa, dude, that's heavy stuff!
That lyric makes me cry every time. The song is so deceptively bouncy, but the lyrics are achingly sad.
My Mother was diagnosed with Lung cancer and Towards the END of Her Path , She had Me pLay this Over and Over Again...
This song means so much more to me now then it ever has. Living life for 61 years the ups and downs, love gained and lost, the pain, the pleasure. Amazing how life will change you, and your perspective, if you live long enough.
And if one pays attention to the little things, they matter.
@@johnblair3267 The little things truly matter the most, and it hurts when you realize what you lost (whether your own undoing of happiness or not) extremely hurts.
I'm 62 and I feel like a good day ain't got no rain and a bad days when I lie in bed and think of things that might have been.

Hard to find a song that just makes you want to feel more alive. The melody is 10/10 and Simon's voice is heaven.
"A good day ain't got no rain, she said a bad day's when I lie in bed and think of things that might have been".
That line kills me every time I hear it.
me too
❤❤❤❤
Me too, was married to a sociopath... who still has my family thinking I'm the bad guy for divorcing him.
Hindsight is always 20/20.....
Me 3 what it be what it be.
Timeless song about the passage of time in everyone's lives. The lyrics are the voice of an old soul. Such a talent...
Wich one slips Wich one slides. My leer jet got no fuel. Pleese buy me another. .slide and slip
Time is slipping away, it may seem as though time creeps by but it isn't is passing in a blur. I tell the youth to take life as borrowed time, I am in my 60's now and wish I could have done more, seen more, lived more. Use your resources to enjoy everything you can as quickly as you can, don't waste time it will end before you least expect it to
Perhaps it is not too late just yet.
Doesn’t matter what you do, how you hope to expedite, be ahead of the game, amaze your followers, wins friends and influence people, this too shall slip. Then slide away.
His voice is a true instrument. Sounds angelic.
Word :)
The phenomenal ability to talk a song
Thanks for the great love and support you show me as a special fan of mine, I hope you won't stop listening to music, and thanks for your sincere
Compliment and love towards my music❤️❤️may god bless you.
Smooth as butter

How long have you been listening to my music??
I'm 26. I have no business with the folk that know this music best. All I know is that folk were my parents. I know this well. In my household and in my greatest of times this music rang true. It rings true now more than ever.
My dad exposed it to my sister and I since I have a memory and I'm now 40 and my kids are 23 years old 21 years old and 2yo and they ALL know this good real music, actually my 23 year old son only listens to stuff from wayyy before he was born and up to like 2005 he hates almost ALL new music , I always tell him to give new things a chance but he's an old soul lol
@@nikkimion8171 your son has taste and discernment. that never gets old!
Good music crosses generations
And I'm just laying here vaping and thinking about my immortal soul.... every damn second slip slides away like the thick clouds from my lips.....
If that folk were your parents sounds like you got some appreciating to give your grandparents too my friend!
a bad day is when I lie in bed and think of things that might have been... what incredible lyrics he has always had!
Thanks for the great love and support you show me as a special fan of mine, I hope you won't stop listening to music, and thanks for your sincere
Compliment and love towards my music❤️❤️may god bless you.
lived it.
been there done that
You didn't mention the first bit .....a woman who became a wife these's a the very words she describe her life ....a good day has no rain ....."
You never truly understand this song until you are older. It’s an absolute masterpiece ❤️
Stop trying to age gate depression, I"m 42 and understood this song when I was a teen.
Agreed... i made fun of paul simon until i came out of rehab.
@@dandylionsloth446 idk what age gate depression means (wtf, hope ur being cheeky) but I think what Caz meant was that they didn’t get it until they were older. In any case, Paul was in mid 30s when this came out.. and I was a babe so yeah
I might go with the word experienced instead of older. I got this song in my 20's. Other might later but I'm willing to bet there are those younger than that that feel this song in their soul.
And if you got a son, it hits home even more
Some songs feel as good as climbing into a nice, warm bed on a cold night.
This is one of them................
This song came out in 1975 , I was a senior in high school .I am now 61 and we are all slip sliding away. we are all mortal and are here for a very brief moment in this life. let us all come together as one people one Earth.
Graduated in '75. The song had something I didn't know. Liked it, it was calming. Had no clue. Now, "The nearer my destination the more I'm slip sliding away." I am on the Path now. Slightly, but in the right direction. Peace to Earth!
Class of 75
Could you even imagine if we could put aside our pettiness and just come to that realization. Well put.
Gay
I was born in '76. Still sliding...
R.I.P mom......had to play our song 3/27/2019 Goodbye my best friend😣
luvspurple1969 It gets better in time. Hang on.
God bless your QUEEN. and god bless you for mentioning her. ❤👍
R.I.P. ❤
May she rest in peace
I was 15 when this came out. Didn't have a clue what Paul was talkin' about. Now 55, and....slip slidin' away.
I das 16 seeling weed.
sillyone52062 Amen brother.
how'd that work out for you?
51 here, and just came to find this song because I was telling a friend how time's slip-sliding away.... ain't it the truth. :-)

Great writer. I mean come on! “The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls and tenement halls”. One of America’s greatest lyricists.
The nearer your destination the more you’re slip sliding away!
My Daddy passed away 25 hours ago. My heart hurts, and this helps. We used to listen to all Paul Simon thru the years. I had a cat named "Bones" inspired by Hearts & Bones. My Daddy taught me to love good music. 💔
You called him Daddy?
@@hasyour7257 LMAO
There's a podcast/show on netflix called the midnight gospel. Very trippy animation which might not be your thing. He interviews his mother in the last episode of the first season. She has bone cancer and was dying when he interviewed her. She's since passed, but one thing she said always stuck out to me. She says that she loves him and even though she would be gone soon, that love wasnt going anywhere.
Sorry to hear about your loss. I hope you continue to cry as long as you need to. I hope you continue to turn to music and art in general. I hope your father is somewhere else right now, crying to Paul Simon alongside you.
Sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your loss, hope your pops is fine up in heaven
God only knows, God makes his plan
The information's unavailable to the mortal man -Such an incredible lyric
..... OMG ..... FOR SURE!
jim pinkey agreed it is amazing ... I long to be able to write like Paul
@@fluffyclouden actually that line is in the bible...
I always thought it was " available " - hmm 😑
@@waykoolcreations5413 ITS DEFINITELY UNAVAILABLE
Why does this song make me feel something that no other song does? It's frickin amazing
Books tell you what.
Poetry tells you why.
Because Paul Simon. That’s the only explanation.
This man is a genius for his poetry & songs which are phenomenal. May God bless you Paul!!!
who grew up listening to Paul Simon?
Am always glad to receive positive comments from my lovely fans 🤍🖤 it's absolutely my pleasure bringing sweet melody to you. May God bless you awesomely 🙏
I hope you have fun listening to this music 🎧❣️. Have you been to any of my concert?
I’m 30 years old, will be 31 in June. I grew up listening to Paul Simon, jimmy rankin and family, the Sundays, the cranberries and many others. These songs are my childhood, riding in the passenger side of my dad’s pickup truck, driving to town late at night. The moon shining and having the window slightly down and my dad blasting his tunes. Good memories.
Me. My grandmother used to love him
@@EricaCampbell.what have you got to do with Paul Simon
Eu sou uma destas pessoas. Somos privilegiados pelo fato de termos tão bom gosto, apuradíssimo por sinal.🌷
This song has helped me through several rough times. The first time I heard it was right after my uncle died in a motorcycle collision. I've love Simon and garfunkel several years now. Their music has changed my life
One of the most beautiful and powerful songs ever written
I feel this song means; we're sometimes pompous, full of ourselves for what we feel are righteous reasons; only to find out like a schoolyard kid.., how
unbelievably fucking wrong we've been. , all along! ALL of us!
I sang this song when I was a kid, when I didn't even know the meaning of the words, when my dad was nowhere to be found & my single mom struggled to raise me & my 2 sisters... I've been fortunate to have wonderful, strong women who raised me, my grandmother as well, but no father figure.
Hug your kids, guys, & be the best dad you can be, that's more powerful than you could possibly know & more valuable than all diamonds.
My best to everyone ❤️✌️
Both my parents has dementia - I just travel along3🎭this song tells all❤🎼❤➿
I've got 5 kids man and this is the true goal in life
Almost the exact same here ! God bless !
A truly great song means something different to each person who listens.
I had a women slip slide away on me I raised a son without her he is now practicing medicine has children of his own now life has been good to a old plumber he still calls for advice
My hats off to you brother! I can relate. Nice job though.
I slip slided away from an alcoholic who destroyed his liver and died at 45...what a waste
Excellent and a blessing you are
Such a beautiful story. Congrats brother...you have much to be proud of and grateful for.
Awesome an they say men are fucked up smh
Believe we're gliding down the highway when in fact we're slip sliding away... DAMN, brilliant.
Meaning as a 10 yr old and now 55...wow this song is money!
Still sounds good today. Thanks for the memories!!
"A woman who became a wife"...days long gone.
The production is amazing. Not ever overpowering the vocals just complementing
Just wanted to throw out there that the millennium generarion also appreciates great music when they hear it 😉. God bless my mother for introducing me to the oldies (but goodies) before she slippp slid awayyyy
Laura Smith; So amply stated. We're only here for so short a time. Condolences extended.
Thanks, Laura- nice to hear that we Boomers had decent taste in music. So sorry for your loss.
I’m a last-day of the last-week of the last-year to be a “boomer “ my mom had “had” a 45 record collection to die for. However, six of her kids, including me, had a frisbee war with them. Sorry mom. Youth is definitely wasted on the young. But thank you for introducing me to the beautiful land of music.
My son (who's 28 as of 2021), also introduces his pop's to new music.
It's a beautiful cycle that *_needs_* to start in infancy.
My parents turned *ME* on to excellent music as well...
Back in '86, *MY* pops, on the other hand... made fun of the Megadeth song I was listening to while I was blasting 'em while in the shower... one of the funniest friggin' moments I have of him (and I have many)...
This is the cycle we def need to repeat -- inspire the generations younger than us!
My condolences for your loss.
@@Phil_Trujeque Thank you very much for your kind words. Isn’t it great how music can bring strangers together to share their joy of the good thing they’ve found
He kissed his Boy as he lay sleeping, then he turned around and headed home again...makes me start crying and I can't hold in the tears...so powerful.
Mr. Simon has quite a few lines like that. He does the same thing to me. Jeff Buckley's original "Hallelujah" (oh, hell; most any version of "Hallelujah") just turns on the faucets. Actually, the faucets just leak, but they still have to be cleaned up.
Ditto
My father left my mom when I was 3. He left the state when I was 6. Saw him once when I was 9, lived with him for a year when I was 12, and he sent me back to my mom because his new wife didn't want me there. He's slip sliding away as I sit here and type this. I was asked if I was going to see him... simple answer. No.
My own son is grown and has never wondered where I was or whether I loved him. I'm still married to his mother... and if I wasn't, I would never choose another woman over my own son.
Yes for sure
My parents divorced when I was 13. My father did his best to stay in our lives. He would sometimes stop after work in the summer mornings when my mom went to work. He would come up to my room and wake me up. I miss those days. He was in his 40s. He was still young and I was about 15. We would talk about things. Then he would leave before my mom came home for lunch.
What a kick ass song
I can't remember how young I was, I only remember how sad it made me. At age 60 I reflect on the sadness then as futuristic events in my life the unforeseen, unknown now experienced, and glad about it!
Loving life!!!
This was one of those songs I shared with my dad. Love you dad and miss you.
This classic gem came on the radio after dropping off my little boy. During the drive back home I was Slip, Sliding Away...😔
That’s the Oak Ridge Boys singing backing vocals on this little masterpiece of gospel-tinged pop.
Brilliant piece of knowledge!🤗
Thank's for that bit of knowledge, as long as I've known this song, I never knew that...lol ;
Ok, this is an epic tidbit of knowledge.
vicki JJJJH A
I did not know that! That's really cool!
One of the most astute and influential among songwriters, musicians, and artists that there ever was. The breath of Paul Simon's work is astonishing.
Such a dark, sad song both musically and lyrically. Yet it also fills me with a little bit hope. To be better.
yup, that's the sign of a great song.
Same!
Don't forget the thorney crown and Deloris!.
If you ever need to calm your soul just listen to a Paul Simon masterpiece. We sure need this in the year 2023. God bless
Melody, lyric, refrain, rhythm , message. That’s Paul's genius. That’s all.
Absolutely masterful lyrics, he embodies the human condition throughout, thanks Paul.
I'm 57 I was about 13 when this song came out. My brothers and sisters listened to this song and many others like this one, it was good then, and still good.
Whoever EQ'd his voice in this recording was spot on. His voice texture sounds awesome.
Lex Wahl the deep voice?
Makes you miss the 70’s.... time’s slip sliding away....
I was 8 years old when this song came out. It hit me so hard musically. I would ride my Schwinn Stingray with a radio attached to the handle bars singing this song as loud as I could around the neighborhood. Great memories!!
Wow… I’m just imagining the film stand by me or similar.
What a memory !
🍻
I love it I did the same thing and I was the same age
Me,too. It was always playing in our Oldsmobile (hehe) on the way home from school. Love it.
We likely had no idea at the time, how much we would miss & revere the simpler times we had back then. 70s was a great time to grow up in many ways… at least we had some of the best music in history.
What a poet and song writer. Love to hear songs by singers like Bob Dylan and Neil Diamond. The lyrics are like poetry. 70's music is the best.
Nothing is more facts than that!
I wasn’t there, but I imagine all those singer-songwriters of the time sitting around a campfire getting stoned and serenading their friends with their guitars and their voices. Weaving stories about life in a philosophical way as you do when you’re stoned. And everyone grouping up back then as they left home and hitchhiking to adventure, looking for meaning beyond.
paul simon is a one of a kind music artist. I can listen to him all day.
me too.
A Cruz. That's so true ain't that something that cool 😎
He can sure turn a phrase...:)
Step aside Irving Berlin ....
In a vast desert of glib, “feel good” pop music, this song is a tiny oasis of hurtful honesty that makes us all feel less alone.
Genius songwriting..
This will always be the saddest song I ever heard and it makes me cry a little every time I hear it.
Paul Simon's music is the definition of timeless! My music producer friend introduced me to the Paul Simon when we were 16 and I've been hooked ever since, Such good memories hanging out in his basement blasting Paul Simon. I wanna throw my friend some love as we've been through a lot together try searching Lonely Gimmick - Beaches, it's his latest single and it gives me Paul Simon vibes, I'm honestly so impressed with it, its one of those songs that makes you happy when you listen to it
"And I knew a father who had a son. He longed to tell him the reasons for the things he'd done. He came a long way just to explain. He kissed his boy as he lay sleeping, turned around and headed home again" Brilliant! Sad but brilliant!
story of my life!
Hits home for many of us, doesn't it.
🍻
This song came out when I had a beautiful childhood year unlike other years. His song represents that great time in 77
Paul Simon's best solo hit.
I don't know anyone who ISN'T slip-slidin' away these days
Life has more sadness than hapiness, more grief than joy and yet we carry on for the precious few moments which make life worthwhile.
It’s all perception. U could see more happiness than sadness. It’s up to you.
My favorite! Heartrending. So glad he discussed it on Colbert.
this is some of the best music ever
Chris Fairley always the best 50 up to the 80’s.
Doubtful we will ever hear this quality again,thank God we have these treasures recorded............
I remember this song as a child but wow , now the meaning is amazingly true
She said a bad day is when I lay in bed and think of things that might’ve been…. The lyrics in the song just pierce right through to the truth.
His voice is pure silk here
Thanks for the great love and support you show me as a special fan of mine, I hope you won't stop listening to music, and thanks for your sincere
Compliment and love towards my music❤️❤️may god bless you.
Paul Simon has this incredible ability to write songs that are catchy and fun while also being extremely sad and hopeless. he introduces bits of hope into the song only to beat them down a few lines later. Great writer.
Charles Reid: I agree. The lyrics are so incredibly poignant and meaningful. They seem hopeless but in a strange way, I find comfort in them. I feel like I’m not alone. If there’s one lesson I’ve learned in life it’s that nothing lasts. And that’s ok. Now if only I could learn to stop trying to cling, it would be even better 😆
His songs make sense to me. Musical genius.
Wanna make this song really sad; The boy in the 3rd verse is dead, the father is attending his funeral. (It fits with the lyrics as metaphors and it is sad AF 😭)
@@artinnevadayou're right I find inspiration in this song God only knows and God makes his plan. Everything will be fine in the end.
You Sure GOT THAT RIGHT !!!!!
Guys like Paul Simon are awesome because they are not afraid to explore and drink from others. Look at his work exploring the music of South Africa.
This gem from 1977 reached No. 5 in the charts, one of the very few to succeed without being introduced first in an album, nor included later in a studio one, but only in a compilation. The song is a trilogy - man, woman, father who all “slip slide away” and a fourth verse which can be considered an overview, or critic by the one who knows it all.
The song has a “bluesy” cadence, which fits very well with the story line.
The lyrics have inspired numerous debates and writings
One of the four or five best songwriters of our age.
"We think we're gliding down the highway, when in fact we're slip sliding away." Brings tears to my eyes.
Best of times those you shared
Best times show that you cared
Best of times enjoy they are rare
Best of times behind you prepare
For Best of times is a rocking chair
If you ever need a boost in spirit Paul, just read these comments. Such love vibrating your way! I'm such a big fan of your work, thank you for what you have done for this world.
This song just sudddenly popped into my head from nowhere. Haven’t heard it in .. like ..20 years (I’m 52) yep.... it’s all slid away, sadly.
Thanks for the great love and support you show me as a special fan of mine, I hope you won't stop listening to music, and thanks for your sincere
Compliment and love towards my music❤️❤️may god bless you.
For me, this song showcases Paul's best recorded vocal performance. The Bass guitar on this song is noteworthy, also.
Omg this is so beautiful. I miss music like this.
When I was a 17- year-old young girl, living in my car in Houston, TX in 1977-1978, this song spoke to me. It was a beacon of light to the morally aware person in me to warn me away from the shoals of life-the predators, the dangerous ones. That's what this song did for me.
Praise God for the turn around of your life Julia. I pray that each day continues to get better and better for you. God Bless you Julia Walsh. Your testimony was very touching. Keep on pushing forward.
Morally aware.

Good for you love, trust in God
Thank you Paul🥰
I loved this song long before I knew it's meaning. 40 years find me truly "living" the song. Life's short. Bitter or sweet.. We choose.
Tell someone you love them, no regrets at the end.
Yea then you don't wonder or waist time thinking about it.yes no maybe so
True
You also missed the meaning of this song.
Yes!!
So true!
Great thoughts!
@@user-pe9gz8si8k : What’s the meaning?
I'm 54 always thought that I had plenty of time you young people think about that
Goes faster than you think... Realized that at around 38...when my work was bring in kids 20+ years younger than me. You know, the "when the hell did that happen!", feeling.
Thank you for your wisdom, my much respected elder.
How true. LIFE IS A FREAK AND TIME IS A THIFE. Time is the one thing that even the richest man can't buy, once its gone it's gone. Slow down and enjoy the ride. It will all be over way too soon 🤔
Loren Swindall I am 34. I used to listen to Negotiations and Love Songs as a 6-year-old. Trust that there are plenty of Millenials who are wide open, listening.
Play Graceland
I wish artist still wrote powerful songs like this
They do
+Matt Turley ehhh.... less common. And its too upbeat or peppy.
Some people still do... You have to search them out, and there's rarely a group that makes *all* wonderful songs, but you can find artists who are still talented lyricists and musicians rather than skilled with computers. Music isn't what it used to be, but there are still some salvageable parts. :)
Can anybody tell me what the song means
It means diferent thing to different people. But I think it means sometime in life when you about to reach your goals (destination), sometimes things happen that makes you farther away from you original goals. Then in some of those goals you finally get near your destination and think its better just go back to where you came from. I hope that helps you
This song hit me hard when I was recently sober working on a sport fishing boat.. loneliness and fatigue can really help you tap into that more emotional side... I had a lot of demons to confront a conquer and this song helped alot.
Even right now I have a tear rolling down my cheek...
RIP POPPA.
I felt the importance of your post to you and I feel a similar way my friend. I'm a 6 year clean drug addict living each day as it presents itself to me now running the family plumbing business and I get more from these tunes than others can understand as maybe for different reasons but the lyrics came from a real place in his life and are felt as intended by people needing a reminder that they are not alone and others are out there. Love you all. 💛

I'm forty. Six back surgeries. Long live good music!
I've had 3. Ain't much fun. But I have come back a lot. Kickin a little higher now. good luck and God bless ya.
I had 3 back surgeries and one total knee replacement and my life has changed a lot. I am 55 but I enjoy Paul Simon's Slip Sliding away to encourage me every morning. I remember 50 ways to leave your lover when I was around 12 years old.

This song came and won't leave my mind since my heart attack two weeks ago! It's so true. We're all just sleeping away.

How long have you been listening to my music??
one of those mom and dad songs you can remember hearing in the good ol' days.
I came here for a Slip-N-Slide ad and left totally depressed.
🤣

Best Paul Simon song ever! Handsdown 👍
Bridge over troubled waters
Simply one of the greatest songs of all time
He touches my heart
He touches my heart very deeply too
Speeches. This song is speechless.
