Those were the days　Mary Hopkin

Once upon a time there was a tavern
Where we used to raise a glass or two
Remember how we laughed away the hours
Think 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'd choose
We'd fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way
La la la la la 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 we're older but no wiser
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same....

往日时光玛丽霍普金

很久以前，有一家小酒馆
我们常到那儿喝上几杯
记得我们整日谈天说笑
思考着我们所有的伟大计画

那些往日时光，吾友
我们以为永远不会结束
我们将歌舞终日
过着自己选择的生活
为自己奋斗，永不认输
只因我们还年轻，自认为有办法
啦啦………
那些往日时光……

后来，忙碌的岁月冲散了我们
我们失去了那些如星光闪耀的想法
如果还能在酒馆里见到你
我们会彼此微笑，然后说……

今晚，我站在酒馆前
物事似乎已全非
在玻璃窗上，我看到一个陌生的影像
那个寂寞的女子真的是我吗？

穿过门，传来一阵熟悉的笑声
我看见了你，听到你叫着我的名字
啊！朋友，我们年岁徒增却未增长智能
但在我们心中，梦想并没有改变……
