Those Days

Those days
Those days
They come to an end
What was back then
Cannot be again
Bottle it up
Sip from it when
You long for
The days
You thought would not end

Those days
Those days
Were just like that
Memorable times
We’ll never get back
It’s alright
Just dandy with me
Those days
Those days
Are sweet memories

Those days
Those days
My mothers baked bread
Still smelling swell
Just all in my head
That’s ok
For we all will see
Those days
Those days
Come back in our dreams

Those days
Those days
All those bygones
Treasure them well
They won’t last you long
Embrace what you loved
Forget all the rest
Those days
Those days
Were simply the best
