Dolly Parton - Those Were the Days lyrics
Your rating:
Once upon a time there was a tavern Where we used to raise a glass or two Remember how we laughed away the hours Dreamed of all the great things we would do Chorus: 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... Those were the days, oh yes those were the days 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 Repeat Chorus La la la la la la... Just tonight I stood before the tavern Nothing seemed the way it used to be But in my glass, I saw a strange reflection Was that lonely woman really me? Through the door there came familiar laughter I saw your face, I 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 Those were the days 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 Oh yes those were the days Oh yes those were the days Oh yes those were the days
