[Intro] I found an old photograph today Tucked inside a book I put away A thousand little memories Came rushing back to me [Verse 1] We were counting stars on summer nights Making promises beneath the lights Certain we would never change Certain we'd stay the same [Pre-Chorus] But every road keeps moving on No matter how hard you hold on [Chorus] Time goes by Like a river to the sea Carrying yesterday Far beyond my reach Time goes by But some moments never fade You're a chapter in my heart That time can't take away [Verse 2] Now the years have written different plans Different dreams and different hands Still I smile when I think of you And everything we knew [Pre-Chorus] The world keeps turning day by day But some memories find a way [Chorus] Time goes by Like a river to the sea Carrying yesterday Far beyond my reach Time goes by But some moments never fade You're a chapter in my heart That time can't take away [Acoustic Guitar Solo] [Bridge] I don't wish to turn back time Or rewrite every line I just hope wherever you are You know you left a mark [Final Chorus] Time goes by Like a river to the sea Carrying yesterday Far beyond my reach Time goes by And I've finally learned to see Every moment brought me here To who I'm meant to be Time goes by And though we've gone our separate ways A part of you remains In the story of my days [Outro] I found an old photograph today And for a while you felt so close Time goes by... but I still know Some memories never go.
