Leningrad Cowboys - Those Were the Days lyrics
rate meOnce upon a time there was a tavern
Where we used to raise a glass or two
Remember how we laughed away the hours,
And think about 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
La la la la la la la la 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?
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
La la la la la la la la la la la la
Pam, param, param…
Pam, param, param…
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.
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
La la la la la la la la la la la la
