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
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 chose We'd fight and never lose For we were young and sure to have our way La la la la la la 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
Those were the days...
Padam, padam, padam Il arrive en courant derriere moi Padam, padam, padam Il me fait le coup du souviens-toi
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...

Through the door there came familiar laughter I saw your face and heard you call my name Oh my friends were older but no wiser For in our hearts the dreams are still the same
