Those were the days

Those Were the Days – Mary Hopkin
Year: 1968

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…
Those were the days, oh yes those were the days

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….

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?

Through the door there came familiar laughter
I saw your face and heard you call my name
Oh my friend were older but no wiser
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same….

I’ve never heard this song for many years – it’s quite wonderful ( tq EQ )

In the glass I saw a strange reflection…Was that lonely woman really me?

  1. Lagu ini buatkan saya rindu dengan kenangan lama dengan kawan²… klasik dan suara Mary Hopkin ini real. Suara asli tanpa bantuan mesin untuk menambah perisa…. :p

    Rio, Cikgu BI saya form 2 ( Cikgu Teoh) pun nyanyi lagu ini sambil main gitar, blouse beriben merah, berskirt hitam di atas pentas sewaktu majlis ” Hari Penyampaian Hadiah” hujung tahun.

  3. Thanks Jie,lagu ini mengingatkan saya pada guru Bahasa Inggeris waktu belajar di National Type Primary School(English),Selama,Perak.Miss Thava an Indian teacher from Penang use to sing this song during Teacher’s Day.Amat baik dan prihatin.Tiba tiba terkenangkan nya.Dimana dia kini?
