(Ginger Baker and Mike Taylor)
|
When the city of Atlantis stood serene above the sea,
|
Long time before our time when the world was free,
|
Those were the days.
|
|
Golden cymbals flying on ocarina sounds,
|
Before wild Medusa's serpents gave birth to hell
|
Disguised as heaven.
|
|
Those were the days, yes they were, those were the days.
|
Those were their ways, miracles everywhere, are they now?
|
They're gone.
|
Those were their ways, yes they were, those were their ways.
|
Those were the days, yes they were, those were the days.
|
|
Tie your painted shoes and dance, blue daylight in your hair,
|
Overhead a noiseless eagle fans a flame.
|
Wonder everywhere.
|
|
Those were the days, yes they were, those were the days.
|
Those were their ways, miracles everywhere, are they now?
|
They're gone.
|
Those were their ways, yes they were, those were their ways.
|
Those were the days, yes they were, those were the days.
