AS TIME GOES BY
ROD STEWART FEATURING QUEEN LATIFAH

This day and age we're liv-ing in
Gives cause for ap-pre-hen-sion
With speed and new in-ven-tion
And things like third di-men-sion

Yet we get a trif-le wea-ry
With Mr.  Ein-stein's theo-ry
So we must get down to earth at times
Re-lax re-lieve the ten-sion
And no mat-ter what the pro-gress
Or what may yet be proved--
The sim-ple facts of life are such
They can-not be removed

You must re-mem-ber this
A kiss is still a kiss,
A sigh is just a sigh
The fun-da-men-tal things ap-ply--
As time goes by

And when two lov-ers woo
They still say, 'I love you'
On that you can re-ly
No mat-ter what the fu-ture brings
As time goes by

Moon-light and love songs
Nev-er out of date
Hearts full of pas-sion
Jea-lou-sy and hate
Wo-man needs man
And man must have his mate
That no one can de-ny--

Well, it's still the same old sto-ry
A fight for love and glo-ry
A case of do or die
The world will al-ways wel-come lov-ers
As time goes by



Oh, I'm sing-ing it to you right now
Cause we're talk-ing a-bout
Moon-light and love songs
Nev-er out of date

Hearts full of pas-sion
Jea-lou-sy and hate
Wo-man needs man
And man must have his mate--
That no one can--de-ny

Well, it's still the same old sto-ry
A fight for love and glo-ry
A case of do or die
The world will al-ways wel-come lo-vers
As time goes--by
As time goes by

Time goes by
