Green, Al - Funny How Time Slips Away Lyrics






Well hello there
My, it's been a long time
How am I doin'
Well, I guess I'm doin' fine
It's been so long now and it seems like
It was only yesterday
Ain't it funny how time slips away

How's your new love
I hope he's doin' fine
I heard you told him
You're gonna love him till the end of time
I remember that's the same thing
That you told me yesterday
Ain't it funny how time slips away

I gotta go now
Well, I'll see you hanging round
Don't know when though
Never know when I'll be back in town
Remember what I told you
That in time you're gonna pay

Well ain't it funny how time slips away
Yeah, ain't it funny how time slips away

    He took my heart the first time I listened to him, even into decades later now. What his voice does to me, even still, is wraps me up like silk and carries me away. Lawd, have mercy.
