I got tired of falling for maidens hearts But being by myself, yeah, was twice as hard I couldn´t deal with all the problems mostly brought on by myself So I ran to another girl in another town
Was besotted by your sister in Camden town In her blue fake fur that she 'slung' around We drank and had sex on a water soaken bed, yeah, yeah She was the first Italian girl that I´d met
Those days have gone Those days I knew would never last in the end Now we´ve all grown apart, oh, so fast
Hey Hey, you Yeah
I remember seeing you on La Brea avenue I whistled from the back of a yellow cab Well, you smiled and you waved and you, you shouted my name I just drove on and I never looked back
Those days have gone Those days I knew would never last Now we´ve all grown apart, oh, so fast
I said, hey I said, hey I said, hey
I lived on my own for a while back in 1983 On top of the scum half junky building for forty quid I caught the boat to Sweden I never wanted to come back I stayed there I said that It´s in my past That´s the past, yeah, yeah My past, my, yeah
Those days have gone Those days I knew would never last, yeah Now we´ve all grown apart, oh, so fast
Those days have Those days have Those days have, oooh Those days have Those days have Those days have, oooh (Those days I knew would never last) Those days have Those days have Those days have gone (Those days I knew would never last) (Those days I knew would never last) (Those days I knew would never last)
