Those Were the Days (A Tribute to Mary Hopkin)
Once upon a time there was a tavern
- 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 about 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
- For we were young and sure to have our way
- La la la la
- Ten 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
- 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 choose
- We'd fight and never lose
- Those were the days oh yes those were the days
- La la la la
- 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 choose
- We'd fight and never lose
- Those were the days oh yes those were the days
- La la la la
