Those Were The Days My Friend

Once upon a time there was a school yard          

Where we used to bounce a ball or two
Remember how we laughed away the hours

And think 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 at the school yard

We'd smile at one another and we'd say

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 choose

We'd fight and never lose



Colby, Michial, Jordan "all innocents"

 For we were young and sure to have our way.

La la la la la la La la la la la la



They brought up the rear in the processional
at Baccalaureate

Just tonight I stood before the school yard
Nothing seemed the way it used to be
In the glass I saw a strange reflection
Was that lonely old man 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 choose
We'd fight and never lose
Those were the days....oh yes those were the days
