Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, hello there
My, it's been a long, long time
How am I doing?
Well, I guess that I'm doing fine
But it's been so long
But it seems like it was only yesterday
Ain't it funny
How time slips away?
[Verse 2]
How's your new love?
Well I hope that he's doing fine
I heard you told him
You'd love him till 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]
I gotta go now
Well, I guess I'll see you around
Don't know when though
Don't know when I'll be back in town
But remember what I tell you
'Cause in time, you're gonna pay
It's surprising how time slips away
[Outro]
Yeah, remember what I tell you
'Cause in time, you're gonna pay
Surprising how time slips away
And ain't it funny
How time slips away?
