lyrics

They were talking about the days when
Things weren't what they used to be
They were talking about the days when
Things weren't what they ought to
Should have been
Those were not the days
The stumbling through the haze
Those dark and ending times
The long and winding lines
That we stood on
And those were not the days
They should have been
Back in town
There was no more town
Most of the people
They weren't around
Rounded up
Or dead from the plague
Or sick from the poison
And lying by their grave
And those were not the days
They should have been
Think of all the people
That you'd see
Well before your heart
Began to harden now
There's only you and
Themandme
And we're feeling
Our way to the garden
I don't know
Do you know?
I don't know
Do you know?
I'm so
They were talking about the days when
Things weren't what they used to be
They were talking about the days when
Things weren't what they ought to
Should have been
Those were not the days
The stumbling through the haze
Those dark and ending times
The long and winding lines
That we stood on
And those were not the days
They should have been
