Karaoké Those Were the Days 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 could 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

'Cos 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 choose 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 could do

Then the busy years went rushing by us

We lost our starry notions on the way

And 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

Those were the days my friend we thought they'd never end we thought they'd never end

We'd sing and dance

We'd sing and dance forever and a day forever and a day

We'd live the life we choose

We'd live the life we choose we'd fight and never lose we'd fight and never lose

'Cos we were young

'Cos we were young and sure to have our way and sure to have our way

Those were the days

Those were the days oh yes 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

And in the glass

I saw a strange reflection

Was that lonely fellow really me

Those were the days my friend

Those were the days my friend we thought they'd never end we thought they'd never end

We'd sing and dance

We'd sing and dance forever and a day forever and a day

We'd live the life we choose

We'd live the life we choose we'd fight and never lose we'd fight and never lose

Those were the days oh yes those were the days oh yes those were the days
