| Now we are together, sitting outside in the sunshine |
| But soon we’ll be apart and soon it’ll be night at noon |
| Now things are fine, the clouds are far away up in the sky |
| But soon I’ll be on a plane and soon you’ll feel the cold rain |
| You promised to stay in touch when we’re apart |
| You promised before i left that you’ll always love me. |
| Time goes by, people cry, everything goes too fast. |
| Now we have each other enjoying each moment with one another |
| But soon I’ll be miles away and soon the phone will be our only way |
| You promised we’ll never brake up over the telephone |
| You said our love was stronger than an ocean apart |
| Time goes by and people lie, everything goes too fast. |
| Let’s not fool ourselves in vain, this far away trip will give us pain |
| We’ll have to be so strong to keep our love from going wrong |
| Distance will make us cold, even put our love on hold |
| But soon we’ll meet again and soon it’ll be bright at noon again |
| You promised not to loose faith in our love when i’m away |
| You promised so much to me but now you’ve left me We go by and then we lie all this time we wasted |
| Time goes by, people lie everything goes too fast. |
| Time went by, and then we died, everything went too fast. |
