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never out of date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
there's 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
