It was the summer of 82, that is when I first saw you
Love at first sight, what a beautiful thing
And when I think about it, ooh I just want to sing
about the days.
Yes those were the days, those were the days

But after two years, we grew apart
No, you wouldn't listen darling, listen to to my heart
Once in love, we 're strangers now
and when I think about it,
ooh it brings me a tear somehow, yeah baby

I'm thinking about the days
Yes those were the days

Well now it's over, yes it's over and done
You got your children and I got my two sons
When I feel sad, lonesome and bad
I think about the days that you and me once had

I'm thinking about the days
Yes those were the days
so much in love
well it hurts my tongue to talk
well it hurts my feet to walk
those were the days (2x)
