-- You must remember this -- A kiss is still a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh -- The fundamental things apply -- As time goes by -- And when two lovers woo -- They still say, "I love you" -- On that you can rely -- No matter what the future brings -- As time goes by -- Moonlight and love songs -- Never out of date -- Hearts full of passion -- Jealousy and hate -- Woman needs man -- And man must have his mate -- That no one can deny -- Well, it's still the same old story -- A fight for love and glory -- A case of do or die -- The world will always welcome lovers -- As time goes by -- Oh yes, the world will always welcome lovers -- As time goes by
