The Lyrics and recording details

Drip, drip, drip,
Bit by Bit
It Slips away
Drip, drip, drip,
Bit by Bit
Less and Less each day
Less and Less each day

Drip, drip, drip,
Bit by Bit
More Slips away
Drip, drip, drip,
Bit by Bit
Smaller and Smaller still
Smaller and Smaller still

Drip, drip, drip,
Bit by Bit
Slip Slipping away
Drip, drip, drip,
Bit by Bit
Gone for evermore
Gone for evermore

Drip, drip, drip,
Bit by Bit
Steeper the slide becomes
Drip, drip, drip,
Bit by Bit
Slipping away from here
Slipping away from here

Drip, drip, drip,
Bit by Bit
She Slips away
Drip, drip, drip,
Bit by Bit
She has Gone away
She has Gone away

Drip, drip, drip,
Bit by Bit
Her mind has Slipped away
Drip, drip, drip,
Bit by Bit
Her mind has gone away
Her mind has gone away
Her mind has Slips away
Her mind has gone away

Not getting this one M8 .. Mix is a little low on the vox  .. but I do like the Floyd 'feel'

I can understand, it is about my partners mental decline with one of the cruelest conditions any intelligent, smart, clever, imaginative person can experience. And me watching her slip away from me. I have found a copy of the lyrics, they are in this forum from three years ago, I will copy and paste them here again.

I like it. Worts and all. Certainly a PF vibe, which is an easy sell for me. You do have a lot of singing potential, and I'm very happy to see you explore it more.  For me the hardest part is finding the right lyrics to sing. They have to mean something that resonates with me. Once I have them established as such the rest seems to come natural. To be clear, I never considered myself a top notch vocalist by any stretch of the imagination, but most of us are not a Steve Perry and never will be. Its all about adding an extra dimension to the work and to lead the audience into the emotion message of the music. Anger, sadness, joy, love, etc. Even though some didn't understand the lyrics they can certainly pick up the emotional tones of your voice. Ex: Great Gig In The Sky. It takes a lot of nerve to sing, because it requires one to expose them self a bit more. Don't be nervous about such things. You sing it the way you feel it, brother, and let the rest of the world spin. 

Oh, by the way. How the hell have you been doing, my furry friend? Stay well!!!

Need to bring up the vocals mate.
The snare sounds a little week to me..  (thin)

It is done Gary, the track is three years old, it just felt time to play it again, thanks for the ears though it is appreciated.

You not only know how to tickle the cerebral part of me, you can hit me at a visceral level as well.  I'm very happy to hear this Wookie!

Thanks Lynn, you are most kind.

Sending my love mate.  Went through it with my Dad - it's so cruel. 

You know how to get hold of me if you need a chat. 

You are most kind and thank you for the love.
