Hank Snow - 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.

--- Instrumental ---

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...
