I cant say I knew you well
well as anybody could
I can say I knew you when we were yound
and long time ago I took your hand and pulled you close
you pulled away and blamed the cold and time

If I was young I would go back, pick you up against your will
take you with me everywhere that I go
If I had you I'd give you money and all the love that you could hold
and every morning we'd go dancing
If I had you I would be gold

They say not to dwell on the things that we can't have
and to leave what's been done in the past
but the memories come in and some get left behind
but the sun won't go away just cause you ask

If I was young I would go back, pick you up against your will
talke you with me everywhere that I go
If I had you I'd give you money and all the love that you could hold
and every morning we'd go dancing
if I had you I would be gold
if I had you I would be gold

Still sometimes late at night in my dreams I'll drift away
to the place I've left alone so many years
there you are just like before and here I am just like today
as I wake up I watch you off and disappear

If I was young I would go back, pick you up against your will
take you with me everywhere that I go
If I had you I'd give you money and all the love that you could hold
and every morning we'd go dancing
if I hard you I would be gold
if I hard you I would be gold
