Ignorance has blinded me
And I've been a fool
And now everything reminds me
Of when it was you
When we were close, looking at me the most, yeah
Look at what those moments were
Those were the shiny days
I was playing for time, passing the flowers by
Never really trying to hold the hours back
I wish that I could have known you
So we could do this all over again
You turned your heart to my heart
Keep my butterflies glowing in the dark
Kept waiting, never planned anything
No, no, I wasted time away
Those were the shiny days
I was playing for time, passing the flowers by
Never really trying to hold the hours back
I wish that I could have known you
So we could do this all over again
Those were the shiny days
Those were the shiny days
I was playing for time, passing the flowers by
Never really trying to hold the hours back
I wish that I could have known you
So we could do this all over again
