Those Were The Days

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 things we would do

Those were the days my friend
We'd thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance
Forever and the day

We'd live the life we'd choose
We'd fight and never lose
Fore we were young
And sure to have our way

La La La La La La La La La La La La
La La La La La La La La La La
La La La La La La La La La La La La
Those were the days, my friend those were the days

Then the busy years went rushing by us
We lost our stary notions along 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'd thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance
Forever and the day

We'd live the life we'd choose
We'd fight and never lose
Fore we were young
And sure to have our way

La La La La La La La La La La La La
La La La La La La La La La La
La La La La La La La La La La La La
Those were the days, my friend those were the days

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 person really me

Those were the days my friend
We'd thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance
Forever and the day

We'd live the life we'd choose
We'd fight and never lose
Fore we were young
And sure to have our way

La La La La La La La La La La La La
La La La La La La La La La La
La La La La La La La La La La La La
Those were the days, my friend those were the days

Through the door there came familiar laughter
I saw your face I heard you call my name
Oh my friends were older but no wiser
Fore in our hearts the dreams are all the same

Those were the days my friend
We'd thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance
Forever and the day

We'd live the life we'd choose
We'd fight and never lose
Fore we were young
And sure to have our way

Those were the days my friend
We'd thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance
Forever and the day

We'd live the life we'd choose
We'd fight and never lose
Fore we were young
And sure to have our way

Those were the days my friend
We'd thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance
Forever and the day

We'd live the life we'd choose
We'd fight and never lose
Those were the days
My friend those were the days
