Once upon a time there was a tavern以前這裡是一個酒館
Where we used to raise a glass or two過去我們常常來到這裡喝兩杯
Remember how we laughed away the hours記得我們常常在這裡開懷大笑
And dreamed of all the great things we would do夢見我們以前做過的很多美好的事情
Those were the days my friend過去的那段日子很美好，我的朋友
We thought they’d never end我們認為它們永不會消失
We’d sing and dance forever and a day我們永遠唱呀跳呀
We’d live the life we choose我們選擇我們的生活
We’d fight and never lose我們吵架但不會失去對方
For we were young and sure to have our way我們都年輕並且都有自己的路要走
La la la la…啦啦啦啦……
Those were the days過去的幸福時光
Oh yes those were the days哦，過去的幸福時光
Then the busy years went rushing by us這些年忙碌的日子
We lost our starry notion on the way使我們失去了很多美好的時光
If by chance I’d see you in the tavern如果再給我們依次機會讓我在酒館認識你
We’d smile at one another and we’d say我保證我們會一見如故
Those were the days my friend
Just tonight I stood before the tavern今天我站在酒館前
Nothing seemed the way if used to be卻沒有從前的那種感覺
In the glass I saw a strange reflection在鏡子中我看到了一個奇怪的身影
Was that lonely woman really me那個孤獨的女人真的是我麼
through the door there came familiar laughter從門口能聽到非常熟悉的笑聲
I saw your face and heard you call my name我看到你的臉聽見你叫我的名字
Oh my friend we’re older but no wiser哦，我的朋友，我們都變老了但是並不明智
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same以為在我的心裡，夢還是一樣的沒有改變
