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 choose
We'd fight and never lose
When 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
Then the busy years
went rushing by us
We lost our strong
emotions 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 choose
We'd fight and never lose
Those were the days
on yes those were the days
La la la La la la
La la la La la la
La la la La La la la La la la
Just tonight
I stood before the tavern
Remember the simple
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 choose
We'd fight and never lose
Those were the days
on yes those were the days
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
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 choose
We'd fight and never lose
Those were the days
on yes those were the days
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
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
