Time Passes By
Dreams drift away like leaves on the waterThey roll down the river and slip out of sightToo many times we do what we ought toPut off till tomorrow what we'd really rather do tonightAnd later realizeTime passes by people pass onAt the drop of a tear they're goneLet's do what we dare do what we likeAnd love while we're here before time passes byThoughts are like pennies we keep in out pocketsThey're never worth nothing till we give them awayLove's like a promise in an unopened letterWhere nights full of pleasure seldom see the light of dayWhen life gets in the wayTime passes by people pass onAt the drop of a tear they're goneLet's do what we dare do what we likeAnd love while we're here before time passes byTime passes by people pass on...Time passes by people pass on...At the drop of a tear they're goneLet's do what we dare do what we likeAnd love while we're here before time passes by From Letras Mania
