Funny how time slips away - Willie Nelson Well, hello there! My, it's been a long, long time. "How am I doin'?" Oh, I guess that I'm doin' fine. It's been so long now, and it seems now that it was only yesterday. Gee, ain't it funny how time slips away. How's your new love? I hope that he's doin' fine. I heard you told him that you'd love him till the end of time. Now, that's the same thing that you told me, it seems like just the other day. Gee, ain't it funny how time slips away. I gotta go now; I guess I'll see you around. I don't know when though, never know when I'll be back in town. But remember what I tell you, that in time you're gonna pay, and it's surprisin' how time slips away.
