[Intro] Yeah, uh Take me back To those golden days With you [Verse 1] Eighteen years old with our whole lives ahead Sneaking out late, no worries in our heads Your mama didn't like me, but we didn't care Young love burning bright without a prayer Parking lot kisses in your daddy's car Talking 'bout dreams underneath the stars Graduation caps thrown up in the air Promised each other we'd always be there [Pre-Chorus] Those were the days we felt alive In your eyes I could survive [Chorus] Golden days when we were young and free Nothing but love and possibility Time stood still when you were holding me Golden days, sweet memory Take me back to when we had it all Before life made us learn to crawl Golden days, they never fade away In my heart they'll always stay [Verse 2] College bound but still connected at the heart Late night calls when we're miles apart Summer breaks meant coming back to you Making up for all the time we grew Through the distance and the changing years Through the laughter and occasional tears That young love grew into something real Something that no time could ever steal [Pre-Chorus] Those were the days we felt alive In your eyes I could survive [Chorus] Golden days when we were young and free Nothing but love and possibility Time stood still when you were holding me Golden days, sweet memory Take me back to when we had it all Before life made us learn to crawl Golden days, they never fade away In my heart they'll always stay [Bridge] Now we're older, we got bills to pay But I still see you in that same way When you smile I'm eighteen again Dancing in the summer rain Golden days ain't just a memory They live in you and me Every kiss brings back that feeling Love that's always healing [Final Chorus] Golden days when we were young and free Nothing but love and possibility Time stood still when you were holding me Golden days, sweet memory Take me back to when we had it all Before life made us learn to crawl Golden days, they never fade away In my heart they'll always stay (Golden days, golden days with you) [Outro] Yeah, uh Those golden days Still shining bright You and me Forever
