about
The song looks at the highs of a former romance. Ultimately it culminates in the realization that all that's left of that love is the memory.
lyrics
“Lover, are we quarrelling?”, she said with a come get me smile.
I was so excited, I stumbled, I fell, and we laughed for a while.
Those were the days when
we were on top of the world.
Those were the days when
Nothing would stop our love.
Our love, love, love, love.
Our love, love, love, love, love.
Like lion and lioness trying to start up a pride.
When our lovemaking couldn’t, it wouldn’t, ever seem to go out of style.
Those were the days when
we were on top of the world.
Those were the days when
Nothing would stop our love.
Our love, love, love, love.
Our love, love, love, love, love.
Traipsing our way through the daisey in summertime
Wave upon wave of our memories come crashing down on my mind
Those were the days…
When…
We…
Were on top of the world
There was nothing
Stoping...
Our love...
Stoping...
Our love...
Stoping...
Our love...
Stoping...
Stoping...
Our love...
Those were the days
we were on top of the world
Those were the days, the days, the days, days
OOoooooo
“Lover, are we quarrelling?”, she said with a come get me smile.
