As Time Goes By - Denis Solee, Beegie Adair

Feel, damn you, feel

Like you’re alive again

Take ten broken limbs

And make it alright for them

And I needed you more

More than you’ll ever notice

But I need to do more

If you’re to ever know this

Or you won’t care at all

No, you won’t care at all

For you won’t care at all

No, you won’t care at all

Dance puppet boy

If you do a good job

Then they’ll want you again

Give it all that you’ve got

Show them the joy and the pain and the ending

Then do it again, and we’ll all stop pretending

They’ll pay more attention to what’s before mentioned

As you bob your head

'cause you’re not even listening

A very small few of you even give meanings

But laugh, clown boy, laugh

'cause it’s always so pleasing

Feel, damn you, feel

Like you’re alive again

I needed to know

Needed a show of hands

For all this couldn’t be sure

As we see a lot of them

And i traded it all

Could i make a difference

At all?

I met a woman

She was wonderful

Everything perfect

We both had the world

But I filled up my senses

With thoughts from the ghost

And i spent her life savings

Left no room for

Both of us

Crying and trying

And screaming aloud

I barely can see her tumultuous crowds

Are careful to hide her and sing much too loud

See, you don’t even know what i’m talking about

Feel, damn you, feel

Like you’re alive again

I needed you more

Than you would ever’ve noticed

At All

Couldn’t be sure

That you would ever notice

But i gave it my all

Did i make a difference at all?
