Well, hello there, my, it's been a long, long time
How am I doing? Oh, I guess I'm going 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 that she's doing fine
I heard you told her that you'd love her till the end of time
Now, that's the same thing that you told me seems like just the other day
Oh, ain't it funny how time slips away
I gotta go now, I guess, I'll see you around
Don't know when though, I never know when I'll be back in town
But you just remember what I tell you that in time you're gonna pay
And it's surprising how time slips away
