FUNNY HOW TIME SLIPS AWAY
(Words and Music by Willie Nelson, 1962)
 

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? 

( instrumental break ~ sax solo )

Just you remember, what I tell you 
that in time you're gonna pay 
and it's surprisin', 
surprisin' how time slips away!
