You Pass Me By

You Pass Me By
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.
You pass me by, and now I know my hopes are all in vain
Here am I alone on memory lane.
I hope and pray, the one you love will never make you cry,
Then turn away and pass you 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.
