As Time Goes By
Rod Stewart & Queen Latifah Lyrics

This day and age we're living in
The present era is characterized by constant innovation, and this sometimes causes concern.

Gives cause for apprehension
New advancements and changes can cause unease and worry.

With speed and new invention
The pace of progress is fast, and new innovations continue to emerge.

And things like third dimension
New technologies such as 3D movies and virtual reality are becoming more common.

Yet we get a trifle weary
Despite all the excitement, we can still become a bit tired.

With Mr. Einstein's theory
Even though Einstein's discoveries are fascinating, they can also be exhausting to understand.

So we must get down to earth at times
It's important to stay grounded and take a break from all the buzz.

Relax relieve the tension
Take a moment to unwind and let go of stress.

And no matter what the progress
Regardless of how far humanity advances,

Or what may yet be proved
No matter what discoveries are made in the future,

The simple facts of life are such
Certain fundamental truths about human life will always remain.

They cannot be removed
These truths cannot be erased or changed by progress or discovery.

You must remember this
Remembering something important.

A kiss is still a kiss,
The simple act of a kiss will always stay the same.

A sigh is just a sigh
The small expression of a sigh will always mean the same thing.

The fundamental things apply
Certain basic truths about the world will always be true.

As time goes by
As the years pass.

And when two lovers woo
When two people are in love,

They still say, "I love you"
They will still express their feelings for each other.

On that you can rely
You can count on this to be true no matter what happens.

No matter what the future brings
Regardless of what the future holds,

Moonlight and love songs
Romantic themes such as moonlight and love songs,

Never out of date
Will never go out of style.

Hearts full of passion
Emotions such as passion and love,

Jealousy and hate
And negative emotions such as jealousy and hate,

Woman needs man
Women need men in their lives,

And man must have his mate
And men need their significant others as well.

That no one can deny
This is an undeniable truth about human relationships.

Well, it's still the same old story
The struggles of love and romance have remained consistent throughout time.

A fight for love and glory
Falling in love and pursuing a romantic relationship is a highly emotional and passionate process.

A case of do or die
It is often seen as a make or break situation.

The world will always welcome lovers
Despite how much time passes and society changes, people will always be accepting of those in love.

As time goes by
As the years pass.
