As Time Goes By

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Never out of date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

It's still the same old story

The fight for love and glory

A case of do or die

The world will always welcome lovers

As time goes by

But it's still the same old story

The fight for love and glory

A case of do or die

The world will always welcome lovers

As time goes by

You better believe it

When I tell you that I mean it

Of all of these gin joints

And you had your walk into mine

You played it for him

Now you've got to play it for me

Play it, Stevie

As time goes by
