Funny How Time Slips Away - Al Green, Lyle Lovett

Time, time, time, time

Slips away

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 and it seems

It was only yesterday

Ain’t it funny, funny, funny

How time slips away

How’s your new love

I hope he’s doin' fine

I heard you told him, told him

You’re gonna love him, till the end of time

If I remember that’s the same thing, same thing

That you told me It was only yesterday

Ain’t it funny, funny, funny

How time just slips away

And sometimes I have to say

I gotta go now

I guess I’ll see you

Somewhere 'round, somewhere 'round

You don’t know, you never know

We don’t know, you can’t know

When I’ll be back in town

I want you to please

Remember what I told you, what I told you

That in time you’re gonna pay

I think it’s funny, funny, funny

How time just slips away

All I want you to do is just

Remember, just remember what I told you

In time, in time you’re gonna pay

Ain’t it funny, funny, funny

How time just slips away

One thing I want you to do is

Just remember, remember what I told you

In time, in time you’re gonna pay

Ain’t it funny, funny, funny

How time just slips away

That’s the same thing, same thing

That you told me It seems like just the other day

It’s funny, funny, funny

How time just slips away

It’s funny baby

How time slips away

It’s funny, funny, funny

How time just slips away
