You pass me by and you don't even stop to say hello Don't know why I've learned to love you so Each night it seems I hear you say your love will never die I wake from dreams you pass me by When you are lonely some day you'll learn Just what it means to live in dreams of love that's unreturned A love so sweet that vanished with the sunshine in the sky Each time we meet you pass me by [ steel ] You pass me by and now I know that my hopes are all in vain Here am I alone on memory lane I hope and pray that the one you love will never make you cry Then turn away and pass me by I keep your memory locked in my heart Forever there to help me bear the lonely tears that start I might have known our love was only meant to be a lie Oh heart of stone you pass me by
