[Verse 1]
Well, hello there
My, it's been a long, long time
How am I doing?
Oh, well, I guess I'm doing fine
It's been so long now, and it seems that
It was only yesterday
Mm, ain't it funny how time slips away?

[Verse 2]
How's your new love?
I hope that he's doing fine
Heard you told him, "Yes, baby"
That you'd love him till the end of time
Why, you know, that's the same thing
That you told me
Well, it seems like just the other day
Mm, ain't it funny how time slips away?

Yeah, baby
[Guitar solo]
Yeah

[Verse 3]
I got to go now
Guess I'll see you hanging 'round
Don't know when though, oh
Never know when I'll be back in town
But I remember what I told you
That in time you gonna pay
[Outro]
Yeah, ain't it surprising how time slips away?
Yeah, ain't it surprising how time slips away?
