Mary Hopkin - 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 
And dreamed 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 
For we were young and sure to have our way. 
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 
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... 
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 choose 
We'd fight and never lose 
For we were young and sure to have our way. 
La la la la... 
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 choose 
We'd fight and never lose 
For we were young and sure to have our way. 
La la la la... 
Those were the days, oh yes those were the days

  1. أغانى جميله وأوقات جميله وذكريات لا تنسى ولكن أنت لا تتصل بنا لنستعيد قليلا من هذه الأيام

  2. أذا لم تجمعنا الأيام جمعتنا الذكريات وأذا العين لم تراك فالقلب لن ينساك
    أنشاء الله قريبا ح نتقابل
