Tale as Old as Time

I wanna lay by a lake in Norway I, I wanna walk through Swedish fields of green I want to see the forrests of Finland I, I want to sail on a boat on the Baltic sea I wanna feel a Russian winter I, I want to go to my Polish grandmother's home I wanna see Hungarian lanterns I want to walk on a road that leads to Rome I want to be free as the winds that blow past me Clear as the air that I breathe To be young as the morning and old as the sea I want to lose myself in the Scottish highlands The west coast of Ireland The Cornish breeze I want to rest my bones in the Spanish sunshine The Italian coastline is calling me To be free as the birds that fly past me Light as the fish in the sea To be as wise as the mountains and tall as the trees I want to be sunny and bright as the sunrise Happy and full as the moon I'm fleeting like fireworks, fading too soon

Good times they come and they go Never going to know What fate is going to blow Your way just hope that it feels right Sometimes it comes and it goes You take it ever so slow And then you lose it Then it flows right to you So we rely on the past Special moments that last We're as tender as we dare to remember Such a fine time as this What could equal the bliss? The thrill of the first kiss It'll blow right to you It's never... as good as the first time Never... as good as the first time Never as good as the first time Good times they come and they go Never going to know It's like the weather one day Chicken next day feathers The rose we remember The thorns we forget We'd love and leave We never spend a minute on regret It is possibility the more we know the less we see Second time is not quite what it seems Natural as the way we came to be Second time won't live up to the dream It's never... as good as the first time Never as good as the first time Never... as good as the first time Never as good as the first time Ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba Ba-da-da-da ba-ba Ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba Ba-da-da-da ba-ba Natural as the way we came to be Second time won't live up to the dream Natural as the way we came to be Second time is not quite what it seemed Ooh... It's never... ooh... as good as the first time As the first time never as good as the first time Natural as the way we came to be Second time won't live up to the dream Natural as the way we came to be Second time is not quite what it seemed It's never good as good as the first time good As the first time as good as the first time Ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba Ba-da-da-da ba-ba Ba-da-da-ba-ba-ba

This day and age we're living in Gives cause for apprehension With speed and new invention And things like fourth dimension With Mr. Einstein's theory So we must get down to earth at times Relax relieve the tension Of And no matter what the progress The simple facts life are such They cannot be removed You must remember this A kiss is just a kiss The fundamental things apply As time goes by And when two lovers woo They still say, "I love you" On that you can rely As time goes by Moonlight and love songs Never out of date Hearts full of passion Jealousy and hate And man must have his mate That no one can deny

You must remember this A kiss is still a kiss A sigh is just a sigh The fundamental things apply As time goes by And when two lovers woo They still say I love you On that you can rely No matter what the future brings As time goes by Never out of date Hearts full of passion Jealousy and hate Woman needs man And man must have his mate That no one can deny It s still the same old story A fight for love and glory A case of do or die The world will always welcome lovers As time goes by
