Good old days!!
not exactly the same literal meaning, but it's an idiomatic expression that seems to convey the same thing

But it's not literal. When you say "quero que o tempo volte", means you want time to go back(wards).

If I could only turn back the clock!
Obviously not literal but I thought I'd put the option out there. It might be good depending on the tone of the story.
Another similar option is: If only I could turn back the hands of time.

and have those moments to share once more.
I would look at that photo on the table,
and know that life has so much more.
So I know I can't change that picture,
the memories will stay precious to me,
every time I see that picture on the table,
I will smile and know you are still with me.
