There's a teacher in the class

With a tight grip on my ear

And I know he won't let go

Until I can force a tear

So I cry the best I can

To eliminate the pain

Now I forget what I did wrong

All I remember is the shame

Still they're saying

Those were the days

So simple and so clear

Those were the days

With only God to fear

Those were the days

When people weren't afraid

Those were the days of hoping

Father Father, I confess

In my ignorance and haste

I was caught out with this girl

Now I am no longer chaste

Human instinct is a flaw

In this theory you have built

Though it's a blessing in disguise

Now I know it to be guilt

Still they're saying

Those were the days

So simple and so clear

Those were the days

With only God to fear

Those were the days

When people weren't afraid

Those were the days of hoping

Those were the days

When everything was right

Those were the days

When people used to fight

Those were the days

When people weren't afraid

Those were the days

(Listen to me)

Those were the days

So simple and so clear

Those were the days

With only God to fear

Those were the days

When we weren't afraid

(Those were the days)

Those were the days

So simple and so clear

Those were the days
