When the city of Atlantis
Stood serene above the sea
Long time before our time
When the world was free
Those were the days

Golden symbols flying
On Ocarina sounds
Before wild Medusa's serpents
Gave birth to Hell
Disguised as Heaven

Those were the days
(Yes they were)
Those were the days
Those were the ways
Miracles everywhere, where are they now?
(They're gone)

Those were the ways
(Yes they were)
Those were the ways
Those were the days
(Yes they were)
Those were the days

Tie your painted shoes and dance
Blue daylight in your hair
Overhead a noiseless eagle fans a flame
(Finally)
Wonder everywhere

Those were the days
(Yes they were)
Those were the days
Those were the ways
Miracles everywhere, where are they now?
(They're gone)

Those were the ways
(Yes they were)
Those were the ways
Those were the days
(Yes they were)
Those were the days
