[Verse 1]
Once upon a time, life was so simple
We were so grateful for everything we had, yeah
We were young and free to be whatever we dreamed
There was no mountain we could not go, oh no
Once upon a time
Our joy was in giving each other a life with no fear or limits
How things have changed, now I can only reminisce
About the times and I start to cry and say
[Chorus]
Help me to bring back those days
When we werе young
Were young, werе young
Help me to bring back those days
When we were young
Were young, were young
[Bridge]
Once upon a time
Ubomi babulula
Intlungu yam iyeyakho
Oh, how I miss those days
Usana iwam ilolwakho
Olwakho ilolwam
What happened to those days? Yeah
How things have changed
Now I can only reminisce
About the times and I start to cry and say
[Chorus]
Help me to bring back those days
When we were young
Were young, were young
Help me to bring back those days
When we were young
Were young, were young
Help me to bring back, bring back
Help me to bring back those days
Those days
Help me to bring back, bring back
Help me to bring back those days
Those days
Those days
(Can you still remember?)
Those days
(Can you still remember?)
