  • We shot this video over the summer in Fine's backyard.
    It's the first song that I learned to play on the uke (greatly taught by Fine, of course). We still enjoy playing it a lot.
    The dragonfly is REAL. No kidding (watch our faces).
    Thanks to Laurent 'Lolo' Ripoll for the glittering editing.
    Une petite vidéo estivale tournée dans le jardin de Fine.
    C'est la première chanson que j'ai appris à jouer au uke (dignement enseignée par Fine, bien-sûr). On adore toujours autant la jouer.
    La libellule est VRAIE. Preuve : la tête qu'on fait.
    Merci à Laurent "Lolo" Ripoll pour le montage scintillant.

    The first time I heard the original of this song, it was as if I was swept away to some spring day under a willow tree, playing music until dark Recently, my overlistening of Beirut has resulted in a loss my ability to escape somewhere picturesque in Europe by listening to this and others by Condon. However, you two have resparked that ability with this cover. Thanks! Do more for beirut.

    The times we had
    Oh, when the wind would blow with rain and snow
    Were not all bad
    We put our feet just where they had, had to go
    Never to go
    The shattered soul
    Following close but nearly twice as slow
    In my good times
    There were always golden rocks to throw
    At those who
    Those who admit defeat too late
    Those were our times, those were our times
    And I will love to see that day
    That day is mine
    When she will marry me outside with the willow trees
    And play the songs we made
    They made me so
    And I would love to see that day
    Her day was mine

    F
    The times we had

    Were not all bad
    A
    We put our feet just where they had
    F
    Had to go
    A
    Never to go
    The shattered soul
    Following close but nearly twice as slow
    Were my good times
    There were always golden rocks to throw
    At those who
    Those who admit defeat too late
    Those were our times
    Those were our times
    Bb F Dm
    And I will love to see that day
    C
    That day is mine
    Bb F
    When she will marry me

    What made me so
    And I would love to see that day
    The day was mine
