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 wanted to
We'd roll the dice but never lose
Those were the days
Those days, those were the days
Once upon a European summer
Twice beneath the champagne-colored sky
We had something good, it's such a bummer
That I can't seem to let our good thing die
You were 25, and I was younger
Probably should've seen it from the start
Never was a favorite of my mother
But I keep going back to where we fell apart
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 wanted to
We'd roll the dice but never lose
Those were the days
Those days, those were the days
La, la, la, la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la
Those were the days
Those days, those were the days
(La, la, la, la-la)
(La-la-la-la, la-la)
(Those were the days)
(Those days, those were the days)
I heard that you found yourself a lover
Wonder if you're finally satisfied
Oh, do you ever think of me under the covers
And, that summer, has nothing been the same since you were mine?
'Cause now I'm driving down the highway to the places that we went
I swear that things'd changed if you'd just show me once again
You'd realize that you miss me, and it'll be like I'm still your man
'Cause I keep going back to all the times we spent, oh, yes
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 wanted to
We'd roll the dice but never lose
Those were the days
Those days, those were the days
La, la, la, la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la-la
(Those were the days)
La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la
Those were the days
Those days, those were the days
(La, la, la, la, la-la)
(La-la-la-la, la-la)
(La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la-la)
(La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la)
(La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la)
(Those were the days)
(Those days, those were the days)
We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance, forever and a day
We'd live the life we wanted to
We'd roll the dice but never lose
Those were the days
Those days, those were the days
Once upon a European summer

We'd live the life we wanted to
We'd roll the dice but never lose
Those were the days
Those days, those were the days
La, la, la, la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la, la-la
Those were the days
Those days, those were the days
