Jim Reeves I Let The World Pass Me By Lyrics

I let the world pass me by, when I left you go
I was a fool, so how could I know
That when blue shadows fall, each night I pray
For someone I've loved always, and lost in a day.

I let the world pass me by, the day I lost you
My dreams are the same, but they'll never come true
Where ever you go, I'd like you to know The world pass me by, when I left you go.

--- Instrumental ---

I let the world pass me by, I was to blind to see
The one thing that mattered, was being stollen from me
Now if I live forever, I know that I
Will always remember, when the world passed me by...
