Those Were The Days Lyrics - Postcard - Mary Hopkin

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... 

 

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 

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...
