My, How The Time Goes

My, my, my, my
My, my, my
My, my, my, my, my
Hey, rebop
Hey, jump in
Hey, rebop
Hey
My, my, my
My, how the time goes by
When we kiss goodnight
And I hold you tight
I wonder why
All the crickets sigh
Don't you suppose they know
How I hate to go?
We start out early
Just a little after seven
Then it's quarter past eleven
And when we've just begun
It's ten to one that we'll
Need an alibi
'Cause the clock don't lie
How the time goes by
My, how the time goes by
When we kiss goodnight
And I hold you tight
Wondering why
All the crickets sigh
Don't you suppose they know
How I hate to go?
We start out early
Just a little after seven
Then it's quarter past eleven
And though we've just begun
Boy, it's ten to one that we'll
Need an alibi
'Cause the clock don't lie
How the time goes by
My
Honey, the way the moments seem to fly
How the time goes by
Why does it get so late for you and I?
When we kiss goodnight
Why do we ever have to say goodnight?
And I hold you tight
Nighty-night, nighty-night
I wonder why
Many's the time I've really wondered why
All the crickets sigh
Many's the time I've heard the crickets sigh
Don't you suppose they know
Honey, do you suppose they really know
How I hate to go?
'Cause I love you so
We start out early
Two or three or four or five or six
Just a little after seven
Heaven with you
Then it's quarter past eleven
I'm in a stew
And when we've just begun
It's ten to one that we'll
We're gonna have to have a smart reply
Need an alibi
We're gonna have to find an alibi
'Cause the clock don't lie
No, the clock don't lie
How the time goes by
