Funny How Time Slips Away

(written by Willie Nelson)

1 Well, hello there -
My it's been a long, long time.
How I'm doin´?
Well, I guess that I'm doin' fine.
It's been so long now
And it seems that it was only yesterday.
Gee, ain't it funny how time slips away.

2 How's your new love
I hope that he's doin' fine.
Heard you told him
That 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
Gee, ain't it funny how time slips away.

3 Gotta go now,
Guess I'll see you hangin´ around,
Don't know when tho',
Never know when I'll be back in town.
But remember what I told you
That in time you're gonna pay
And it's surprising how time slips away.
Yeah, ain´t it surprising how time slips away!
