เนื้อเพลง 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
And dreamed of all
the great things
We wonld 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
For 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
SOLO......
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 choose
We'd fight and never lose
Those were the days,
Oh 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
SOLO......
Just tonight I stood
before the tavern
Nothing seemed the way
it used to be
In the glass
I saw a strange reflection
Was the lonely
fellow 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,
Oh 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..

SOLO......
Through the door there came
Familiar laughter
I saw the 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,
Oh 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
