‎those were the days Lyrics by Mitch James

patience

2022

[Verse 1]
We had the world in our sights
We built it up from foundations
So when I see you at night, ah no
I can’t resist your temptations
[Pre-Chorus]
You say that you want more
But then you get bored
Remember when we’d talk 'til the morning babe?
[Chorus]
Those were the days we thought never would end
We’d sing and we’d dance until the morning came in
It felt like we were lost but we were working it out, yeah
Those were the days we’d be nothing without
We’d stay up and talk forever
Right into the night
Got lost in the moment
Drawn into the lights
Those were the days
Those were the days
[Verse 2]
You’re always in then you’re out
But I’m the one that’s left in pieces (Pieces)
I miss the fire by your couch (I miss the fire by your couch)
I’m sitting looking at you speechless (Speechless)
[Pre-Chorus]
You say that you want more
Then you get bored
Remember making love in the morning babe?
[Chorus]
Those were the days we thought never would end
We’d sing and we’d dance until the morning came in
It felt like we were lost, but we were working it out
Those were the days we’d be nothing without
We’d stay up and talk forever
Right into the night
Got lost in the moment
Drawn into the lights
Those were the days
Those were the days
[Verse 3]
I miss the part when you’d pull me closer
Forget it all yeah, we’ll start it over again
Where is the girl I loved last October?
I’ve been hoping, searching, praying
[Chorus]
Those were the days we thought never would end
We’d sing and we’d dance until the morning came in
It felt like we were lost, but we were working it out
Those were the days we’d be nothing without
We’d stay up and talk forever
Right into the night
Got lost in the moment
Drawn into the lights
Those were the days, yeah
Those were the days
