You must remember this, a kiss is still a kiss, 
A sigh is just a sigh, the fundamental things apply, 
As time goes by . . . 
  
An' 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Moonlight an' love songs never out of date, 
Hearts full of passion, jealousy an' 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 an' glory, 
A case of do or die, the world will always welcome lovers, 
As time goes by . . . 
  
< instrumental verse three > 
  
It's still the same old story, a fight for love an' glory, 
A case of do or die, the world will always welcome lovers, 
As time goes by . . .
