Lyrics

I met my younger self today and I didn't know what to say,
He asked me for some wise advice, to show the way that's right,
So I looked into his pleading eyes, I looked into his eyes,
And I told him with a heavy sigh, Don't Let Love Pass You By.

CHORUS
Don't Let Love Pass You By boy Don't Let Love Pass You By,
I told him with a heavy sigh,
Don't Let Love Pass You By.

And don't drink whisky every night, you'll only lose your mind,
The days that you have left to live gets shorter all the time,
And you'll end up just like me, you'll end up just like me,
A lonely man in an old folks home, you'll end up just like me.

CHORUS
