I
Don't know why
The world turns out to be
The way
It is
As time goes by
Oh, I
Don't know why
True love turns out to be
The stuff
Between
Hello – and goodbye
Looking back
With 20/20 hindsight
We only tried to play our part
When selfishness is state of the art
You've just got to change the locks on your heart
No, I
Don't know why
True love turns out to be
The stuff
Between
Hello – and goodbye
Looking back
With 20/20 hindsight
We only did the best we could
As green as any Norwegian Wood
The acid test of fame we withstood
Now I
Don't know why
The world turns out to be
The way
It is
As time goes by
Oh, I
Don't know why
True love turns out to be
The stuff
Between
Hello – and goodbye
