[Lyric] Time Goes By (PHANGS)

[Verse 1]
Taught you how to pick them
The few that made the cut
He was the man who set the curfew but always would stay up
Yeah, he left that light on
Wouldn't blink until you'd go

[Chorus]
And now every single time that you shut the front door
You open up another and you're begging God for more
Time goes by but you really don't want it to
And you'd give up anything for just one more day
You're reaching out to touch her but it's too late
Time goes by but you really don't want it to

[Verse 2]
Called you round the corner 'bout quarter to two
Said you could not fall in love, but have been slept and abused
So I drove back to your home
We didn't speak, we just sat like stone
[Chorus]
And now every single time that you shut the front door
You open up another and you're begging God for more
Time goes by but you really don't want it to
And you'd give up anything for just one more day
Reaching out to touch her but it's too late
Time goes by but you really don't want it to
Now every single time that you shut the front door
You open up another and you're begging God for more
Time goes by but you really don't want it to
And you'd give up anything for just one more day
Reaching out to touch her but it's too late
Time goes by but you really don't want it to
