John Dartnell - Glory Days Lyrics

We were warriors in days gone by
Nothing then was gonna get in our way
And just when I thought I'd got it all worked out
Ten years had gone by and I'd watched it all slip away

What happened to our glory days, You were gonna be a football star
And I was gonna be a wealthy man and drive a fancy car
What happened to our glory days, what happened to our schemes
We listened to the words of fools who stripped us of our dreams

We always talked about what we'd do
When the time was right we would make our break
But when my ship came in Ooh I missed the tide
I was holding my tongue instead of holding onto my pride

What happened to our glory days, You were gonna be a football star
And I was gonna be a wealthy man and drive a fancy car
What happened to our glory days, what happened to our schemes
We listened to the words of fools who stripped us of our dreams

Spent too long taking good advice but it wasn't good for me
By the time I'd realized they'd set my destiny

What happened to our glory days, You were gonna be a football star
And I was gonna be a wealthy man and drive a fancy car
What happened to our glory days, what happened to our schemes
We listened to the words of fools who stripped us of our dreams
