Lyrics

[Verse 1] When the city of Atlantis Stood serene above the sea Long time before our time When the world was free Those were the days [Verse 2] Golden cymbals flying On ocarina sounds Before wild Medusa's serpents Gave birth to hell Disguised as heaven [Chorus] 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 [Instrumental Break 01:34-01:57] [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] Tie your painted shoes and dance Blue daylight in your hair Overhead a noiseless eagle Fans a flame Wonder everywhere [Chorus] 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
