Sir Thomas Jones Woodward, KBE, OBE (born 7 June 1940), best known by his stage name, Tom Jones is a Welsh pop singer particularly noted for his powerful voice. He was born in Treforest, near Pontypridd in South Wales. He rose to fame in the mid-1960s, with an exuberant live act which included wearing tight breeches and billowing shirts, in an Edwardian style popular amongst his peers at the time. He was known for his overt sexuality, before this was as common as it became in subsequent years. In 1963 he became the frontman for Tommy Scott and the Senators, a local beat group.

Funny How Time Slips Away Lyrics

Tom Jones

Well, hel-lo there-
My it's been a long, long time.
How'm I do-in?
Oh I guess that I'm doin' fine.
It's been so long now
And it seems that it was on-ly yes-ter-day.
Gee, ain't it funny
How time slips away.

How's your new love
I hope that he's doin' fine.
Heard you told him
Thaat you'd love him till the end of time.
Now, that's the same thing that you told me,
Seems like just the other day
Gee, ain't it funny how time slips away.

Gotta go now,
Guess I'll see you around,
Don't know when tho',
Never know when I'll be back in town.
But remember what I tell you
That in time you're gonna pay
And it's surprising how time slips away.
