(Herman Hupfeld)

You must remember this
A kiss is still a kiss
A sigh is still 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
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Never out of date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
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die
The world will always welcome lovers
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Never out of date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
Oh, 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
'Cause time goes by...
