those were the days

 those were the days 


remember those summer tides

with the sea suspended above the sea’s glow

on brown legs and teenage banter

late into the evening the sun would not set

on a day that would not end

the crowded steps 

the crowded beach

the last of the children streaming home

the girls and the boys the looks

the way of the suspended

oh yes i remember it well

as if yesterday

oh yes

she sang ‘those were the days my friend’
