Is there like a word for "bittersweet if-only nostalgia" like the kind that makes you cry a little but you just want to keep experiencing it?

Like for the way you /wish/ something was. Not the way it actually was.

@orrery yeah...

its like... once, a long ways back, it /could/ have been perfect... but it wasn't... so I'm just going to imagine what it might have been like...
