THE HUMAN LEAGUE - LYRICS
THESE ARE THE DAYS
(Oakey/Stanley)
Ah ah
Here's a song
About living
in the past
If it was so
good then
How come it
didn't last?
If it helps
you
I'll put it in
a phrase
Those were the
times
But these are
the days
These are the
days
These are the
days
These are the
days
These are the
days
These are the
days
The times
you're smiling back on
Had that great
sitcom
It hardly
compensated
For the terror
of the bomb
Let me help
'Cause you're
looking through a haze
Those were the
times
These are the
days
These are the
days
Hey hey hey
These are the
days
Can you hear
me now?
These are the
days
Look around
look around look around
These are the
days
These are the
days
Hey hey live
today
These are the
days
It's time to
put the past away
These are the
days
The more you
do the more you say
These are the
days
The more I
need to get away
You're longing
for a time
there never
was
Now tell me
the truth
You're looking
for the reason
It's because
You're
fighting for youth
But if I have
to listen any more
To fantasy
talk
Or any other
bug you have
I'm leaving
Now I'm not
saying
Everything is
really great
Hey hey hey
After sixteen
years
Of legalised
class hate
Why waste time
Looking back
for things to praise?
Those were the
times huh
But these are
the days
These are the
days
Looking back
in history
These are the
days
Time to get
contempory
These are the
days
The past is not the place to be
