"Those Were (Could've Been) The Days" lyrics

Well, there's a road, babe, that could take us to glory
Ain't that a place, gal, we ain't never been
But only you, darlin', can tell that story
Well, only you can walk right in

And ain't it hard (Ain't it hard) when you discover (When you discover)
Ain't nobody (Ain't nobody) ever knows
It's only you (It's only you), there ain't no other (There ain't no other)
Well, only you (Only you) can walk that road

That evening sun is slowly sinking
Where I sit here most all alone
But I ain't drunk, darlin', I just been a-drinking
Trying to make it on my own

Cause I have seen (I have seen) the light surround you (The light surround you)
Seen it make (Seen it make) your body glow
But I can't stay here (But I can't stay here) just dwelling on you (Just dwelling on you)
Gotta be walking (Gotta be walking) down that road

But oh, wasn't it fine?
Oh, wasn't it true?
You had me, babe
And I had you

Now I go out walking all after midnight
Just a-searching for the one I love
But I can't find you now
There ain't nothing feels right
And I'll just keep walking till it does

'Cause ain't it hard (Ain't it hard) when you discover (When you discover)
Ain't nobody (Ain't nobody) ever knows
It's only you (It's only you), there ain't no other (There ain't no other)
Well, only you (Only you) can walk that road

But oh, wasn't it fine?
Oh, wasn't it true?
You had me, babe
And I had you
