The Days of Wine and Roses Songtext
von Ella Fitzgerald and Joe Pass

The days of wine and roses
Laugh and run away like a child at play
Through the meadowland, 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 days of wine and roses
Laugh and run away like a child at play
Through the meadowland toward a closing door
A door marked "nevermore", that wasn't there before
The lonely night, lonely night, discloses just a passing breeze
Filled with memories of the golden smile that introduced me to
The days of wine and roses

There was a day of wine and roses
The day of wine and roses and you
Wine and roses and you
Days of wine and roses and you
