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

Gee! ain't it funny, how time slips away?



How's your new love?

I hope he's doin' fine

Heard you told him that you'd love him 'till the end of time

Now, that's the same thing,

the same thing you told me, seems like just the other day

Gee! ain't it funny, funny how time slips away?







Just you remember, what I tell you

that in time you're gonna pay

and it's surprisin',

surprisin' how time slips away!



Words and Music by Willie Nelson, 1962
