[00:14.57] |
Once upon a time there was a tavern |
[00:20.05] |
Where we used to raise a glass or two |
[00:25.09] |
Remember how we laughed away the hours |
[00:30.59] |
And dreamed of all the great things we would do |
[00:38.11] |
Those were the days, my friend |
[00:42.52] |
We thought they'd never end |
[00:45.29] |
We'd sing and dance forever and a day |
[00:50.37] |
We'd live the life we choose, we'd fight and never lose |
[00:55.34] |
For we were young and sure to have our way |
[01:00.33] |
La la la la la la, La la la la la la |
[01:05.31] |
Those were the days |
[01:07.31] |
Oh yes, those were the days |
[01:14.92] |
Then the busy years went rushing by us |
[01:19.77] |
We lost our starry notions on the way |
[01:25.39] |
If by chance, I'd see you in the tavern |
[01:30.83] |
We'd smile at one another, and we'd say |
[01:38.18] |
Those were the days, my friend |
[01:42.66] |
We thought they'd never end |
[01:45.02] |
We'd sing and dance forever and a day |
[01:50.32] |
We'd live the life we choose, we'd fight and never lose |
[01:55.16] |
For we were young and sure to have our way |
[02:00.19] |
La la la la la la, La la la la la la |
[02:05.30] |
Those were the days |
[02:07.11] |
Oh yes, those were the days |
[02:14.53] |
Just tonight I stood before the tavern |
[02:19.68] |
Nothing seemed the way it used to be |
[02:25.36] |
In the glass I saw a strange reflection |
[02:30.82] |
Was that lonely man really me |
[02:38.07] |
Those were the days, my friend |
[02:42.49] |
We thought they'd never end |
[02:45.02] |
We'd sing and dance forever and a day |
[02:49.84] |
We'd live the life we choose, we'd fight and never lose |
[02:54.88] |
For we were young and sure to have our way |
[02:59.85] |
La la la la la la, La la la la la la |
[03:05.09] |
La la la la.... |
[03:10.14] |
La la la la la la, La la la la la la |
[03:15.05] |
La la la la.... |
[03:29.72] |
Through the door there came familiar laughter |
[03:34.84] |
I saw your face and heard you call my name |
[03:40.30] |
Oh, my friend, we're older but no wiser |
[03:45.62] |
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same |
[03:53.24] |
Those were the days, my friend |
[03:58.25] |
We thought they'd never end |
[04:00.92] |
We'd sing and dance forever and a day |
[04:05.97] |
We'd live the life we choose, we'd fight and never lose |
[04:10.86] |
For we were young and sure to have our way |
[04:15.18] |
La la la la la la, La la la la la la |
[04:20.86] |
La la la la.... |
[04:25.94] |
La la la la la la, La la la la la la |
[04:30.90] |
La la la la.... |
