School Days

The Kinks · Other Songs - The Kinks

If ever you think about the happiest days of your life

Cast back your mind for a while

And remember the time when you were a child.

Don't think of the things that make you sad

JUst remeber the good times you had.



Do you remeber only happy days,

Full of flaming junes and summer holidays?

Or do u remeber those stormy novembers

When we walked in the wind and the rain?

Schooldays were such happy days,

Now they seem so far away,

I remeber and i'll always tresure.

School days were the happiest days of your life

But we never appreciate the good times we have

Until its too late.



I miss all the acquantances we made

And I'd go back if i could only find a way,

Schooldays were the happiest days

Though at the time the filled me with dismay.

We only remeber what we choose to remember.

When i was a schoolboy i loathed

regulations and rules,

I hated my textbooks and my school uniuform

Cos' it made me conform,

And teachers were always disobeyed,

But i'd go back if i could find a way.



School days were the happiest days,

Now they seem so far away.

I remeber and i'll always tresure,

School days were the happiest days of your life

But we never appreciate the good times that we hav

Until it's too late.

Now i wish i hadn't strayed

And i'd go back if i could only find a way.

Schooldays.
