Those Were The Day - Hermes House Band

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 
Ho! He hey! Ho! 

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 
´Cause we were young 
And sure to have our way 

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 
Those were the days 
Oh yes 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 

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 

Alright, all together!!! 

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 
´Cause we were young 
And sure to have our way 

La la la, la lala, 
Lalala, la lala, 
Lalalala, lalalalalala, 
Lalalala, lala, 
Lalalala, lala... 
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 fellow 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 chose 
We´d fight and never lose 
Those were the days 
Oh yes those were the days 

La la la, la lala, 
Lalala, la lala, 
Lalalala, lalalalalala, 
Lalalala, lala, 
Lalalala, lala... 
Those were the days 
Oh yes those were the days 

La la la, la lala, 
Lalala, la lala, 
Lalalala, lalalalalala, 
Lalalala, lala, 
Lalalala, lala... 
Those were the days 
Oh yes those were the days 
Those were the days 
Oh yes those were the days 
Those were the days 
Oh yes those were the days. Yeah!
