| [00:16.700] |
Once upon a time there was a tavern |
| [00:22.700] |
Where we used to raise a glass or two |
| [00:28.000] |
Remember how we laughed away the hours |
| [00:32.999] |
And dreamed of all the great things we would do |
| [00:39.478] |
Those were the days my friend |
| [00:44.788] |
We thought they'd never end |
| [00:47.386] |
We'd sing and dance forever and a day |
| [00:51.960] |
We'd live the life we choose |
| [00:55.386] |
We'd fight and never lose |
| [00:57.397] |
For we were young and sure to have our way. |
| [01:01.795] |
La la la la... |
| [01:17.297] |
Then the busy years went rushing by us |
| [01:22.797] |
We lost our starry notions on the way |
| [01:27.980] |
If by chance I'd see you in the tavern |
| [01:31.898] |
We'd smile at one another and we'd say |
| [01:39.898] |
Those were the days my friend |
| [01:42.898] |
We thought they'd never end |
| [01:46.479] |
We'd sing and dance forever and a day |
| [01:50.390] |
We'd live the life we choose |
| [01:53.497] |
We'd fight and never lose |
| [01:56.297] |
Those were the days, oh yes those were the days |
| [02:00.297] |
La la la la... |
| [02:16.300] |
Just tonight I stood before the tavern |
| [02:21.100] |
Nothing seemed the way it used to be |
| [02:26.000] |
In the glass I saw a strange reflection |
| [02:32.200] |
Was that lonely woman really me |
| [02:37.790] |
Those were the days my friend |
| [02:42.100] |
We thought they'd never end |
| [02:44.790] |
We'd sing and dance forever and a day |
| [02:49.600] |
We'd live the life we choose |
| [02:52.790] |
We'd fight and never lose |
| [02:55.700] |
Those were the days, oh yes those were the days |
| [02:59.600] |
La la la la... |
| [03:35.600] |
Through the door there came familiar laughter |
| [03:40.100] |
I saw your face and heard you call my name |
| [03:45.200] |
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser |
| [03:50.200] |
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same |
| [03:57.300] |
Those were the days my friend |
| [04:01.400] |
We thought they'd never end |
| [04:03.900] |
We'd sing and dance forever and a day |
| [04:08.600] |
We'd live the life we choose |
| [04:11.900] |
We'd fight and never lose |
| [04:14.700] |
Those were the days, oh yes those were the days |
| [04:18.700] |
La la la la... |
