AS TIME SNEAKS BY
Music & Lyrics by Ronney Abramson © 1977 Castor Island Music (SOCAN)

All the money in the world I swear
Wouldn’t get me anywhere
‘Cause I love you
And time sneaks by
If my hand were the kind to win
Would you take me back again?
Oh baby
You’re such a crazy man
And I know it’s pure frustration
To be caught in this sort of situation
I think I’ll get up and change the station
I’ve tried to hide it
Time to live beside it again

Feelings are for hearts to bear
I know they won’t get me where
I’m bound to go
But they change me
I know you tried to be the one
I could rest my head upon
But that’s not so free
And I understand
And I know that I can’t change it
Only time and days and months can mend it
I know baby how hard it is to bend it
I’ve tried to hide it
Time to live beside it again

You say that we can’t live as one
I guess we tried too hard too long
And you found out
It was like getting older
So I think I’ll say goodbye in there
And tell you that it’s nice to care
About someone
As time sneaks by
And I know it’s pure frustration
To be caught in this sort of situation
I think I’ll get up and change the station
I’ve tried to hide it
Time to live beside it again
I’ve tried to hide it
Time to live beside it again
