Well hello there, oh my it's been a long long time
how'm i doin',
well let me tell you something, honey
i guess, i guess i'm doin' fine, yeah
it's been so long now and it seems
oh it was only yesterday
ain't it funny how time slips away

how's your new love,
oh lord, i hope that he's doin' fine
heard you told him, yeah
that you was gonna love him until the end of time
now that's the same thing that you told me
oh lord, honey, it just seems like the other day
my, ain't it funny how time slips away

well i gotta go now,
guess i'll see you hanging around
don't know when though
never know when i'll be back in town
but i want you to remember what i tell you
that in time your gonna get down on your knees
and pray and pray and pray
ain't it surprisin' how time slips away
