[Verse] Missin' those golden days They say "Youth is wasted on the young" But those golden days If I could go back in time And do it all again I'd stay the same [Chorus] Those golden days When I was runnin' wild Now I'm tryna be a man But I'm still a child Tryna find the time to sit down and breathe And I don't even know what that means [Verse] Golden days When I was runnin' wild Now I'm tryna be a man But I'm still a child Tryna find the time to sit down and breathe And I don't even know what that means [Chorus] Golden days If I could go back in time And do it all again I'd stay the same [Verse] I remember late nights Chasin' stars in the rearview glow Had the whole world in my hands But I didn't even know Every laugh, every scar Every road I had to leave Turned into a memory That keeps on chasin' me [Chorus] Those golden days They still shine inside my mind Though the years keep movin' on I leave them all behind Tryna hold onto the pieces when they fade But I still hear the echo of those days [Verse] Now the morning comes too fast And the nights don't feel the same Used to run into the fire Now I'm whisperin' my name All the dreams I used to chase Feel a little out of reach But I carry what I learned Everywhere I breathe [Chorus] Golden days If I could go back in time And do it all again I'd stay the same Those golden days Still burnin' in my soul Even if I never get to go back home [Verse] And maybe that's the way it goes Maybe that's the price we pay Growin' up and lettin' go Of the ones we can't replace Still I smile when I remember What was lost and what remained 'Cause the best parts of forever Live inside the pain [Chorus] Those golden days When I was runnin' wild Now I'm tryna be a man But I'm still a child Tryna find the time to sit down and breathe And I don't even know what that means [Bridge] So I'll keep on movin' forward With those years still in my heart Though the world keeps on turnin' And the shadows keep us apart If I never get back there At least I know I tried Those golden days are with me Every step of my life [Final Chorus] Those golden days If I could go back in time And do it all again I'd stay the same Missin' those golden days And I don't even know what that means [Outro] Those golden days And I don't even know what that means Missin' those golden days And I don't even know what that means Those golden days.........
