I can’t remember just when it happened, all I know is it did.
Next thing you know, I am deep in love, but I didn’t fall, I slid.
Nobody pushed me, I didn’t struggle, no magic potion to drink
I can’t remember just when it happened, call it a nod and wink.

There was no rational explanation, there was no scheme or plan.
Once I got moving in your direction I didn’t walk, I ran.
And suddenly my whole world is changing. I still don’t know what I did.
It all happened before I knew it. I didn't fall, I slid, and I’m sliding now.

Some say love is a roller coaster, taking you both for a ride.
But I say love is no roller coaster, I say it’s a slip and slide.
Some will tell you that love is easy. Some have never tried.
When that path gets nice and greasy, you know you’re gonna slide.
You know you’re gonna slide.

One day you’re gonna tell your story; how love conquered you.
Then comes the obligatory passionate overview.
In all of your recollection that you never hid.
I know if you’re being honest, you never fell, you slid. And you’re sliding now.

Some say love is a roller coaster, taking you both for a ride.
But I say love is no roller coaster, I say it’s a slip and slide.
Some will tell you that love is easy. Some have never tried.
When that path gets nice and greasy, you know you’re gonna slide.
You know you’re gonna slide.
