I can say I knew you well, as well as anybody could I can say I knew you when we were young & A long time ago, took your hand, pulled you close You pulled away & blamed the cold & the 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 money & all the love that you could hold & 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 & To leave what's been done in the past But the memories come in & 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 Take you with me everywhere that I go If I had you I'd give money & all the love that you could hold & 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 left alone for so many years & There you are, just like before & Here I am just like today As I wake up, I'll watch you 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 money & all the love that you could hold & Every morning we'd go dancing If I had you I would be gold If I had you I would be gold
