(H. Mancini, J. Mercer)
[Recorded January 28, 1964, Los Angeles]
The days of wine and roses laugh and run away like a child at play
Through the meadow land toward a closing door
A door marked "nevermore" that wasn't there before
The lone-ly night discloses just a passing breeze filled with memories
Of the golden smile that introduced me to
The days of wine and roses and you
[brief instrumental break]
The days of wine and roses
[more instrumental-rest of the first verse]
The lonely - the night discloses just a passing breeze filled with memories
Of the golden smile that introduced me to
The days of wine and roses and you
