Days Gone By

Well I know I said that so long ago
 I would not say it now
 But I didn't know what I said would stick like glue
 What I said in the days gone by
 Well they tried to stitch me up, so many words I said
 I said so long ago
 But we were, oh, so young and foolish then
 Hopefully we can make mistakes and then we grow
 For the days of auld lang syne, my love
 For the days of auld lang syne
 I want to drink, I want to drink a cup of kindness with you
 For the sake, for the sake of the days gone by
 And hopefully we will, hopefully we will keep on growing and growing
 Baby, baby, baby, baby, 'till we reach the sky
 If I ever reach, I have never yet
 But I'm gonna surely, gonna surely have to try, have to try
 For the sake of auld lang syne, my dear
 For the sake of auld lang syne
 I want to drink a cup, drink a cup of kindness
 For the sake, for the sake of the days gone by
 ♪
 Yeah, yeah
 Well I feel so, feel so sorry for the ones who lead
 For to lead, they want to lead such a perfect life
 Sweep under everything
 Sweep everything underneath the rug
 And they're never free from conflict, from conflict and strife
 Because they perpetuate, perpetuate some kind of lie, my love
 Perpetuate, perpetuate the lie
 But everything I'm doing, everything I'm doing
 I had to fight for it, had to fight for it
 In the days
 In the days gone by
 There is no easy, no easy way out, my friend
 You got to get used to it, used to it somehow
 Everything you got in your life right up to now
 Somebody had to fight for it, you had to fight for it
 In the days gone by
 Well go walking, walking, walking up that hillside, now
 Where the heather, where the heather
 Where the heather's growing so wild
 Then I'm going to carry my child, carry my child on my shoulders
 Across the river, across the river
 For the sake, for the sake of the days gone by
 For the days gone by, my dear
 For the days, for the days gone by
 I want to share a cup, share a cup of kindness with you
 For the sake, for the sake of auld lang syne
 For auld, for auld lang syne, my dear
 For the sake, for the sake, for the sake of auld lang syne
 I'm gonna carry my child on my back across the river
 Gonna keep on walking, keep on walking
 Walking in the days, in the days of auld lang syne
 Have mercy now, have mercy now
 Have mercy, have mercy now
 Gonna keep on keepin' on, keep on keepin' on
 Keep on keepin' on, keep on keepin' on
 For the sake, for the sake of the days gone by
 Everything I have in my life right now
 I had to fight, had to fight for it somehow
 Gotta keep on fighting, keep on fighting
 Fighting today, fighting today
 For the sake of the days gone by
 For old acquaintance be forgot
 Yeah, never, never, never brought to mind
 I want to drink a cup, drink a cup, drink a cup of kindness
 For the sake of auld lang syne
 For the sake, for the days gone by my love
 For the sake of auld lang syne
 I wanna drink, I want to share, share a cup of kindness
 For the sake of the days gone by
