Текст песни Joshua Bassett - The Golden Years

[Intro]
(Woo, ooh)

[Verse 1]
Time stopped movin' the minute I saw ya
You took my Taylor guitar in the city of stars and you made it your own
Late night, oh, how I'm missin' those brown eyes
Funny, I'd rather be fightin' with you than alone in the city we knew

[Pre-Chorus]
Four years gone by in the blink of an eye
We were young 'til we weren't, it was fun 'til it hurt
Now I'm terrified that I'll never find love like yours

[Chorus]
If I woulda known those were the golden years
I woulda held you longer that night when you kissed me goodbye through your tears
If I woulda known those were the golden years
I woulda never left you alone when you needed me most, my dear
'Cause those were the golden years (Woo, ooh)
Those were the golden years (Woo, ooh)

[Verse 2]
I left you under the cherry tree that June
Back at the place where I told you that I loved you way too soon
Lately, I stare at the pictures you gave me
I can't help wonderin' if you ever stare back at them too

[Chorus]
If I woulda known those were the golden years
I woulda held you longer that night when you kissed me goodbye through your tears
If I woulda known those were the golden years
I woulda never left you alone when you needed me most, my dear
'Cause those were the golden years

[Bridge]
So dance with me under the cherry tree, darlin'
We'll act like we're still young and free (Mm)
'Cause I'm still in love with the story of us
We were young, but our love, it was real

[Chorus]
If I woulda known those were the golden years
I woulda held you longer that night when you kissed me goodbye through your tears
If I woulda known those were the golden years
I woulda never left you alone when you needed me most, my dear
'Cause those were the golden years (Woo, ooh)
Those were the golden years (Woo, ooh)

[Outro]
'Cause those were the golden years
