Those Were The Nights - DOM (D. F. Bollinger) SUISA 2007 - 2010

VERSE 1
When we vowed for better and for worse
I believed the better would always come first
You looked so nice in your wedding dress
Already pregnant I must confess

I hardly remember this time
'cause our evenings were nothing but an endless fight

Those were the nights
And I don't want to live them anymore

VERSE 2
On a rainy night in November
I realized our love was nothing but a labour
I stopped for a beer at the Pub
And I ended up drowning my dreams in the gutter

Alcohol became my new bride
Stars and moon were the roof over my head

Those were the nights and I don't want to live them anymore

VERSE 3
Now I am sober and clean again
I wish you could see how much I changed
I now remember the smell of your skin
When we stayed awake whil the sun was sleepin'

How many times we looked at the stars
Making wishes to be strong through the pain
I still feel the touch of your arms
So please let me come back, I will make amends

Because ...
Those were the nights I'd like to live again forever more
