Golden Days

I wish you would stop fightin'

I wish I got more sleep

I wish there was more time for your mother and me, mm

I miss pickin' up hobbies

I miss seein' my friends

I miss stayin' up late and I miss sleepin' in

But one day I'll miss pickin' up your sh-

One day I'll wish I could go back here now

But time runs away and things have to change

These are the golden days

I still don't understand it

How it's so hard to see

All the beauty in something before it leaves, mm

'Cause I can't quite find the edges

Or the whole shape of this love

It's happy and sad and proud and scared and everything all mixed-up, mm

But one day I'll miss moments like this

One day I'll wish I could go back here now

I'll walk past your room and hum out this tune

Wonderin' how you're doin'

But time runs away and things have to change

These are the golden days

But one day I'll miss moments like this

One day I'll wish I could go back here now

Why does time run away? Why do things have to change?

These are the golden days
