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 all so young
and foolish then
Hopefully we can make mistakes
An d then we grow
For the days of old
Lang syne my love
For the days of auld lang syne
I wanna drink
I wanna 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,
help me reach the sky
If I ever reach my high limit yet
Well, 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
Oh, 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've got to get used to it,
used to it somehow
Everything you've got in your life,
right up to now
Somebody had to fight for it,
you had to fight for it
And the day is gone by
Let's go walkin', walkin',
walkin', walkin'
Up that hillside now
Where the heather, where the heather
Where the heather's growin' so wild
Then I'm gonna carry my child
Carry my child on my shoulders
Cross the river, cross 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 wanna 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 wanna carry my child on my
back across the river
Gonna keep on walkin', keep on walkin',
walkin' in the days, in the days of old
Einstein
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
What old kindness we forgot
An d never, never, never brought to mind
I wanna drink a cup, drink a cup
Drink a cup of kindness
For the sake of all hindsight
For the sake of the days gone by,
my love
For the sake of all hindsight I wanna drink,
I wanna share
Share a of kindness,
for the sake of the days gone by.
