[00:56.62]Once upon a time there was a tavern
[01:02.45]Where we used to raise a glass or two
[01:07.93]Remember how we laughed away the hours
[01:13.40]And dreamed of all the great things we would do
[01:19.48]Then the busy years went rushing by us
[01:25.17]We lost our starry notions on the way
[01:30.95]If by chance I'd see you in the tavern
[01:36.68]We'd smile at one another and we'd say
[01:43.48]Those were the days my friend
[01:47.29]We thought they'd never end
[01:50.08]We'd sing and dance forever and a day
[01:56.16]We'd live the life we choose
[01:58.65]We'd fight and never lose
[02:01.54]For we were young and sure to have our way
[02:19.87]Just tonight I stood before the tavern
[02:25.50]Nothing seemed the way it used to be
[02:31.33]In the glass I saw a strange reflection
[02:37.12]Was that lonely woman really me?
[03:44.31]Through the door there came familiar laughter
[03:50.05]I saw your face and heard you call my name
[03:55.77]Oh my friend we're older but no wiser
[04:01.30]For in our hearts the dreams are still the same
[04:08.32]Those were the days my friend
[04:12.19]We thought they'd never end
[04:15.02]We'd sing and dance forever and a day
[04:20.85]We'd live the life we choose
[04:23.54]We'd fight and never lose
[04:26.49]For we were young and sure to have our way
