Lyrics

Now we take our time, so nonchalant
 And spend our nights so bon vivant
 We dress our days in silken robes
 The money comes, the money goes
 We know it's all a passing phase
 
 We light our lamps for atmosphere
 And hang our hopes on chandeliers
 We're going wrong, we're gaining weight
 We're sleeping long and far too late
 And so it's time to change our ways
 But I've loved these days
 ♪
 Now as we indulge in things refined
 We hide our hearts from harder times
 A string of pearls, a foreign car
 Oh, we can only go so far
 On caviar and Cabernet
 We drown our doubts in dry Champagne
 And soothe our souls with fine cocaine
 I don't know why I even care
 We'll get so high and get nowhere
 We'll have to change our jaded ways
 But I've loved these days
 ♪
 So before we end, and then begin
 We'll drink a toast to how it's been
 A few more hours to be complete
 A few more nights on satin sheets
 A few more times that I can say
 That I've loved these days
