Webb Pierce - Life's Gone and Slipped Away lyrics

Funny how life can slip away before you know what's happened it's come and gone Oh you always think there'll be another day But before you know it life's gone and slipped away Ask the lonely man whose hair is filled with grey If he can count the hearts he's broken in his days I'll bet he'll bow his head and softly say Son before you know it life's gone and slipped away ( guitar ) I know a lady who lived her life at play And I remember when she was so young and gay But now alone she cries for yesterday Before she knew it life has gone and slipped away Yes before you know it life's gone and slipped away
