"Funny How Time Slips Away" lyrics

"Funny How Time Slips Away"
(originally by Billy Walker)

Well, hello there
My, it's been a long, long time
How am I doing?
Oh, I guess that I'm doing fine
It's been so long now
But it seems like 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
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
But don't know when though
Gotta never know, when I'll be back in town
But remember, what I tell you
In time your gonna pay
And it's surprising (And it's surprising)
How time slips away (how time just slips away)
