Al Green - Funny How Time Slips Away lyrics

Time, time, time, time

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 like
It was only yesterday
Ain't it funny how time slips away

How's your new love?
I hope he's doin' fine, oh yeah
I heard you told him, told him
You're gonna love him 'til the end of time
But, if I remember, that's the same thing
Same thing
That you told me, it was only yesterday
Ain't it funny how time just slips away

I gotta go now
I guess I'll see you somewhere around
Somewhere around
Uh huh, but, oh, you don't know
You never know we don't know
You can't 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, funny
Funny how time just slips away

All I want you to do is just
Just remember what I told you
In time, in time, you're gonna pay
Yeah, 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, hey ain't it funny, funny
Funny how time just slips away
Ooh baby, oh baby it's the same thing
Same thing that you told me
Oh, it seems like just the other day
Ain't it funny, funny
Funny how time just slips away
Funny thing about the time, baby
It's funny, baby, how time slips away
Ain't it funny, funny
Funny how time just slips away
