As time goes by 2

AS TIME GOES BY
(Theme from Casablanca)
by Frank Sinatra 




You must remember this:
A kiss is 
http://www.saberingles.com.ar/images/blank.gif a kiss,
A sigh is just a sigh.
The fundamental things 
http://www.saberingles.com.ar/images/blank.gif
As time goes by.

And when two lovers woo
They still say: 'I love you'.
http://www.saberingles.com.ar/images/blank.gif that you can http://www.saberingles.com.ar/images/blank.gif,
No matter what the future brings,
As time goes by.

Moonlight and love songs,
Never 
http://www.saberingles.com.ar/images/blank.gif date.
Hearts full of passion,
http://www.saberingles.com.ar/images/blank.gif and hate.
Woman needs man,
And man must have his 
http://www.saberingles.com.ar/images/blank.gif.
That, no one can deny.

It's still the same 
http://www.saberingles.com.ar/images/blank.gif story,
A fight for love and glory,
A 
http://www.saberingles.com.ar/images/blank.gif of do or die.
The world will always
Welcome lovers
As time goes by.
