In our times of trouble we only had ourselves, nobody else,
No one there to save us, we had to save ourselves,
And when the storms came through, they found me and you back to back together,
And when the sun would shine, it was yours and mine...yours and mine forever.

And, oh, how the years go by,
And, oh, how the love brings tears to my eyes,
All through the changes, the soul never dies,
We fight, we laugh, we cry as the years go by.

There were times we stumbled,
They thought they had us down, but we came around, yeah,
How we rolled and rambled,
We got lost, we got found,
Now we're back on solid ground, yeah,
We took everything all our times would bring in this world of dangers,
'Cause, when your heart is strong, you know you're not alone in this world of strangers.

And, oh, how the years go by,
Oh, how the love brings tears to my eyes,
All through the changes, the soul never dies,
We fight, we laugh, we cry as the years go by.

And if we lose our way any night or day, well, we'll always be where we should be,
I'm there for you, and I know you're there for me.

Oh, how the years go by,
And, oh, how the love brings tears to my eyes,
All through the changes, the soul never dies,
We fight, we laugh, we cry as the years go by,
Oh, how the years go by,
And, oh, how the love brings tears to my eyes,
All through the changes, the soul never dies,
We fight, we laugh, we cry as the years go by,
Oh, how the years go by, (as the years go by)
And, oh, how the love brings tears to my eyes,
All through the changes, the soul never dies,
We fight, we laugh, we cry as the years go by.

As the years go by.
