This day and age were living in
Gives cause for apprehension
With speed and new invention
And things like third dimension
Yet we get a trifle weary
With Mr. Einsteins 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Never out of date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, its 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 dont change, right?
Sing it to me, Latifah
Oh, Im singing it to you right now
Cause were talking 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Never out of date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, its 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
