☆Those Were The Days☆
◈Mary Hopkin◈
Once upon a time there was a tavern
Where we used to raise a glass or two
Remember how we laughed
away the hours
Think of all the great things
we would do
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-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
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
Those were the days,
oh yes, those were the days
La-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
Just tonight I stood
before the tavern.
Nothing seemed the way it used to be
In the glass I saw
a strange 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
Those were the days, *
oh yes, those were the days
La-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
La-da-da da-da-da,
La-da-da da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
La-la-la la-la-la,
La-la-la la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la
Through 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 our hearts
the dreams 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
