from Casablanca (1942) movie, written by Herman Hupfeld, performed by Dooley Wilson (piano and vocal)

As time goes by lyrics

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 time 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Never out of date.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.

Casablanca As time goes by video song reviews from users:

Bogart Blaine
Max Steiner spoke against using "As Time Goes By" as the song identifying Rick and Ilsa, saying he would rather compose an original song in order to qualify for royalties. However, Hal B. Wallis replied that since the filming had ended, Ingrid Bergman therefore could not re-shoot already-completed scenes that had used As Time Goes By. The movie's line "Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship" was voted as the #65 of "The 100 Greatest Movie Lines" by Premiere in 2007.

Ilsa Bergman
The script was based on the unproduced play "Everybody Comes to Rick's". Samuel Marx of MGM wanted to offer authors (Murray Burnett and Joan Alison) $5,000 for it, but MGM boss Louis B. Mayer refused; Irene Lee of the Warner Brothers story department praised it to Jack L. Warner, who agreed to buy it for $20,000.

Claude Renault
Dooley Wilson (Sam) was a professional drummer who faked playing the piano. As the music was recorded at the same time as the film, the piano playing was actually a recording of a performance by Elliot Carpenter who was playing behind a curtain but who was positioned such that Dooley could watch, and copy, his hand movements. Rick says: "You played it for her, you can play it for me. Play it!". Ilsa says "Play it, Sam. Play As Time Goes By".

Hupfeld Wilson
Casablanca (the American Film Institute ranked as the #3 Greatest Movie of All Time in 2007) with Humphrey Bogart as Rick Blaine, Ingrid Bergman as Ilsa Lund, Paul Henreid as Victor Laszlo, Claude Rains as Captain Renault, Conrad Veidt as Major Strasser, Sydney Greenstreet as Signor Ferrari. In the German version, the immortal line "Here's lookin' at you, kid" (the #1 of "The 100 Greatest Movie Lines" by Premiere in 2007), became, "Ich seh' Dir in die Augen, Kleines" which translates as "I look in your eyes, honey".
