[Spoken Intro]
Time has always taught us, that most things are...
Are subject to change
But there's something mystical and magical about
Two people, and that thang they call love
No matter what comes and goes
That will always be the same

Mexico! ...ico!

[Verse 1]
You must remember this
A kiss is still a kiss
And a sigh is just a sigh, oh
But the fundamental things still apply

[Chorus]
As time goes by
As time goes by

[Verse 2]
And when two lovers woo
They still say, "I love you"
On that you can rely, oh
But no matter what the future brings
[Chorus]
As time goes by
As time go-o-o-o-oes by


Moonlight and love songs (Love songs)
Will never be out of date
Hearts full of passion, jealousy and hate (Oh no, no)
A woman needs man
And a man gotta have his mate
And that's something (Something)
No one (No one) can deny (No one can deny!)
It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die, oh
But no matter what the future brings


As time goooes by
Ai-ai-ai-ay
Ay-ay-ay, ay
Ay-ay-ay

It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Moonlight and love songs, will never be out of date (Oh love)
And hearts full of passion (Oh yeah, yeah)
Jealousy and hate (Oh yeah, yeah)
A woman needs a man and a man gotta have his mate
And that's still (Still), still (Still) to this day

So we must remember this
Love, a kiss is still a kiss
And a sigh is just a sigh, oh
But the world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by

As time goes by
As time goes by
As time go-o-o-oes by
And that's forever (Forever)
And that's forever (Forever)
And that's for... ever
And that's forever, ever
It's still the same old story (Still the same old story)
Everybody fights for love and glory (Fights for love and glory)
And that's for... ever

...ico! Let's go!
