You must remember this/ A kiss is just 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 Moonlight and love songs/ Never out of date.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. 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.
