Those were the days my friend.
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day,
We'd live the life we'd choose.
We'd fight and never lose.
For we were young and sure to have our way.
La-la-la
Once upon a time there was a tavern
Where we used to raise a glass or two,
Remember how we laughed away the hours.
And dreamed of all the great thing we would do.
Then the busy years went rushing by us.
We lost our starry notions on the way.
If by chance I'd see you in the tavern,
We'd smile at one another and we'd say
Those were the days my friend.
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day,
We'd live the life we'd choose.
We'd fight and never lose.
For we were young and sure to have our way.
Those were the days my friend.
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day,
We'd live the life we'd choose.
We'd fight and never lose.
For we were young and sure to have our way.
Just tonight I stood before the tavern.
Nothing seemed the way it used to be.
In the glass I saw a stange reflection.
Was that lonely woman really me
Those were the days my friend.
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day,
We'd live the life we'd choose.
We'd fight and never lose.
For we were young and sure to have our way.
La-la-la
Thought the door there came familiar laughter.
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser.
For in or hearts the dream are still the same.
Those were the days my friend.
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day,
We'd live the life we'd choose.
We'd fight and never lose.
For we were young and sure to have our way.
Those were the days my friend.
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day,
We'd live the life we'd choose.
We'd fight and never lose.
For we were young and sure to have our way.
La-la-la
Those were the days my friend.
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day,
We'd live the life we'd choose.
We'd fight and never lose.
For we were young and sure to have our way.
