☆ Mary Hopkin – 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

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*

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 ?

* Repeat

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

* Repeat
