We rode our bikes on gravel lanes
We sang off-key, we held no reins
We traded secrets, bit by bit
We laughed at things that didn't fit
We climbed the oak with scraped-up knees
We blew dandelions to the breeze
We drew big dragons in the dust
We shared our popsicles and trust
We ran the hills with crazy cheer
The grass and sky were crystal clear
I miss the way our sides would ache
I miss the foolish risks we'd take
We ran the hills with crazy cheer
The grass and sky were crystal clear
I wish we could have saved that gold
A warmth that never would grow old
We climbed the oak with scraped-up knees
We blew dandelions to the breeze
We drew big dragons in the dust
We shared our popsicles and trust
We ran the hills with crazy cheer
The grass and sky were crystal clear
I miss the way our sides would ache
I miss the foolish risks we'd take
We ran the hills with crazy cheer
The grass and sky were crystal clear
I wish we could have saved that gold
A warmth that never would grow old
