This day and age we're livin' in
Gives cause for apprehension
With speed and new invention
And things like third dimension
Yet we get a trifle weary
with Mr. Einstein's theory
So we must get down to
earth at times
Relax relieve the tension
And no matter
what the progress
Or what may yet be proved
The simple facts of life
are such
they cannot be removed
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Never out of date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
Times don't change Rod
Sing it to me Latifah
Oh sing it to you right now
I'm talkin' about
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Never out of date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
As time goes by
Time goes by
