DAYS OF WINE AND ROSES

Music by Henry Mancini
Lyrics by Johnny Mercer
Chorus

The days of wine and roses 
laugh and run away
like a child at play
Through a meadow land
toward a closing door
A door marked "nevermore"
that wasn't there before.

The lonely 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.

(The lonely 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-oo-oo.
