Golden Days (with apologies to Dorothy Donnelly)
Gold -- 301.80 -- 302.30 -- +4.40 -- +1.48%
Golden days in the sunshine of our happy youth Golden days, full of innocence and full of truth. In our hearts, we remember them all else above, Golden days full of youth and love.
So let's ...
Drink! Drink! Drink! To eyes that are bright as stars when they're shining on me Drink! Drink! Drink! To lips that are red and sweet as the fruit on the tree Here's a hope that those bright eyes will shine, Lovingly, longingly, soon into mine
May those lips that are red and sweet, Tonight with joy my own lips meet -
Drink! Drink! Let the toast start! May young hearts never part! Drink! Drink! Drink! Let ev'ry true lover salute his sweetheart!
or as G & S observed ...
Once, in the days of golden weather Days that were always fair, Love was the world we walked together - Oh! what love was there! Fresh as a flower when rains are falling, Pure as a child that prays, Once in the days beyond recalling, Once in the golden days, Once in the days beyond recalling, Once in the golden days.
