[Verse 1]
Well, hello there
My, it's been a long, long time
How am I doin'?
Oh, I guess I'm doin' fine
It's been so long now
And it seems that it was only yesterday
Ain't it funny how time slips away
[Verse 2]
How's your new love?
I hope that he's doin' fine
Heard you told him
You'd love him 'til the end of time
Now, that's the same thing that you told me
Seems like just the other day
Ain't it funny how time slips away
[Verse 3]
Gotta go now
Guess I'll see you around
Don't know when though
You never know when I'll be back in town
But please remember what I told you
That in time you're gonna pay
And it's surprisin' how time slips away
Funny How Time Slips Away was written by Willie Nelson.
Funny How Time Slips Away was produced by Joe South.
