By Ginger Baker & Mike Taylor
When the city of Atlantis stood serene above the sea,
Long time before our time, when the world was free.
Those were the days.
Golden cymbals flying on ocarina sounds.
Before wild, Medusa's serpents gave birth to hell.
Disguised as Heaven.
Those were the days, (Yes they were)
Those were the days.
Those were their ways, miracles everywhere where are they now?
They're gone.
Bold were their ways, (Yes they were)
Bold were their ways.
Those were the days, (Yes they were)
Those were the days.
Tie your painted shoes and dance,blue daylight in your hair.
Overhead and noiseless eagle, fans a flame.
Wonder everywhere!
Those were the days, (Yes they were)
Those were the days.
Those were their ways
Miracles everywhere, where are they now?
They're gone.
Bold were their ways, (Yes they were)
Bold were their ways
Those were the days, (Yes they were)
Those were the days...
