Casablanca

(This day and age we´re living in

Gives cause for apprehension

With speed and new invention

And things like fourth dimension

Yet we get a trifle weary

With Mr. Einstein´s theory

So we must get down to earth at times

Relax relieve the tension

And no matter what the progress

Or what may ye be proved

The simple facts of life are suche

The cannot be removed )

You must remember this

A kiss is just a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh.
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by.

And when two lovers woo
They still say "I love you"
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As times goes by.

Moonlight and love songs
Never Out of date.
Hearts full of passion
Jealousy and hate.
Woman needs man
And man must have his mate
That no one can deny.

It.s still the same old story
A fight for love and glory

A case of do or die
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by

Oh yes, the world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by

Esta canción que proviene de un musical de Broadway, estuvo 21 semanas en la lista de mayores éxitos de U.S.A. en 1931.

La Warner omitió las tres primeras estrofas al ponerla en la película Casablanca. Sea como sea la historia del origen de esta melodía, lo cierto es que ha encandilado a millones de personas en todo el mudo desde su aparición en Casablanca, considerada como una de las mejores películas de todos los tiempos. Y mi preferida.
