Vanessa Williams › Lyrics › Oh How the Years Go By

In our times of trouble
We only had ourselves, nobody else
No one there to save us
We had to save ourselves

And when the storms came through
They found me and you back together
And when the sun would shine
It was yours and mine, yours and mine forever

And oh, how the years go by
Oh, how the love brings tears to my eyes
All through the changes the soul never dies
We fight, we laugh, we cry as the years go by

There were times we stumbled
We thought they had us down
We came around and how we rolled and rambled
We got lost and we got found

Now we’re back on solid ground, we took everything
All our times would bring in this world of danger
’Cause when your heart is strong
You know you’re not alone in this world of strangers

And oh, how the years go by
Oh, how the love brings tears to my eyes
All through the changes the soul never dies
We fight, we laugh, we cry as the years go by

And if we lose our way any night or day
Well, we’ll always be where we should be
I’m there for you and I know you’re there for me as the years go by
You know you’re not alone in this world of strangers

And oh, how the years go by
Oh, how the love brings tears to my eyes
All through the changes the soul never dies
We fight, we laugh, we cry as the years go by

As the years go by
Oh, how the love brings tears to my eyes
And all through the changes the soul never dies
We fight, we laugh, we cry as the years go by

Oh, how the years go by, oh, how the years go by
Now oh, how the years go by, oh, how the years go by
As the years go by, as the years go by
