Slipping Through My Fingers is a song by Swedish pop group ABBA from their 1981 album The Visitors, with lead vocals by Agnetha Fältskog.

The song was only released as a single in Japan (Discomate, 1981), where it was a red vinyl promo single for The Coca-Cola Company with nothing on the b-side except of a printed picture of the group. An album with the same name and a similar looking cover was also released in Japan.

The song is used in the ABBA songs-based musical Mamma Mia!.
