Roger Whittaker – Those Were The Days

Roger Whittaker – Those Were The Days Lyrics

Artist: Roger Whittaker
Song: Those Were The Days

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’d choose

We’d fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way
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’d choose
We’d fight and never lose
Those were the days, oh yes, those were the days

Just tonight, I stood before the tavern
Nothing seemed the 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’d choose

We’d fight and never lose
Those were the days, oh yes, those were the days
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’d choose
We’d fight and never lose
Those were the days, oh yes, those were the days
