Well, hello there
Oh my, it's been a long, long time
How am I doin'?
I guess, I guess, I'm doin' fine
(Well, let me tell you somethin', honey)
It's been so long now and it seems, oh, it was only yesterday
Ain't it funny how time slips away, yeah
How's your new love? Oh Lord, I hope that he's doing fine
Mmm, 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 seems like just the other day
Now ain't it funny how time slips away
Well, I gotta go now, I guess I'll see you hangin' 'round
I don't know when though
Never know when I'll be back here in town
But I want you to remember what I tell you
That in time you get out on your knees
And pray and pray and pray and pray
And it's surprising how time slips away
