Time goes by Slowly but surely Time goes by And baby here am I I'm wasting my time on you Time goes by Slowly but surely Time goes by And sometimes I have to cry For loving you like I do I'm watching a clock And waiting for you But how long How long must I wait? The beat of my heart It's telling me true 'Give it up you made a mistake' Time goes by Slowly but surely Time goes by And baby here am I Oh, I'm wasting my time on you Time goes by Slowly but surely Time goes by Oh, slowly but surely Time goes by Slowly but surely Time goes by
