those were the days, those were the days
i used to be your only one, your charlie
those were the days, those were the days
you'd joke, youd tease, youd tell me you loved me
what happened to those happy days?
we had our friends, we had each other
we had our smiles and laughter
we didnt need anything else
we had it all, we had together
I remember the days we used to be so happy
those were the days, those were the days
i used to be your only one, your charlie
those were the days, those were the days
you'd joke, youd tease, youd tell me you loved me
what happened to those happy days?
but now your no longer by my side
i dont walk along on your arm
another girl, my place, has taken
what happened to our happy days?
I remember the days we used to be so happy
those were the days, those were the days
i used to be your only one, your charlie
those were the days, those were the days
you'd joke, youd tease, youd tell me you loved me
what happened to those happy days?
now alone i stand with a void in my heart
i cry myself to sleep, i cry myself awake
we still have our friends, but not each other
what happened to my smiles
i all went away, it left with you
so now i stand alone
