Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh

Time stopped movin’ the minute I saw ya
You took my Taylor guitar and the city of stars and you made it your own
(Stars and you made it your own, 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
(Alone in the city, alone in the city we knew)
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

If I would’ve known
Those were the golden years
I would’ve held you longer that night when you kissed me goodbye through your tears
If I would’ve known
Those were the golden years
I would’ve never left you alone when you needed me most, my dear
‘Cause those were the golden years (Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh)
Those were the golden years (Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh)

I left you under the cherry tree that June
Back at the place where I told you that I loved you way too soon
(Loved you way too soon, loved you way too soon)
And lately, I stare at the pictures you gave me
I can’t help wonderin’ if you ever stare back at them too (Stare back at them)

If I would’ve known
Those were the golden years
I would’ve held you longer that night when you kissed me goodbye through your tears
If I would’ve known
Those were the golden years
I would’ve never left you alone when you needed me most, my dear
‘Cause those were the golden years

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

If I would’ve known
Those were the golden years
I would’ve held you longer that night when you kissed me goodbye through your tears
If I would’ve known
Those were the golden years
I would’ve never left you alone when you needed me most, my dear
‘Cause those were the golden years (Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh)
Those were the golden years (Woo-ooh-ooh, woo-ooh-ooh)

‘Cause those were the golden years
