New Edition - Bring Back the Memories Lyrics

Baby, you were in my dream
We were walkin’ down the street
When we heard an ol’ melody
Like a blast from the past
That old song took us back
To the way it used to be

Back to Bobby sox and midnight hops
The night I asked you “What’s your name,” oh
Pledging my love over soda pops
And lovin’ you more and more every day

Let the deejay play that old song again
Bring back the memories
Hey there lonely girl, I’ll be your Duke of Earl
‘Cause that’s how it used to be

I keep thinkin’ how it must have been
It wasn’t so long ago, oh
Every thing was so simple then
When “I love you” meant you pledged heart and soul

In the book of love we’re a million to one
Let’s bring back the memories
My Earth angel, we’ve a story to tell
Let’s rewrite the used-to-bes

I can make up each and every scene
I’ll doo wop if it’ll every mean
Then I’d like to rewrite my whole life
With you by my side
Ooh (With you by my side)
Ooh

In the still of the night I want to know that you’re mine
So bring back the memories
Let those old love songs play like they did yesterday
Bring back the memories

In the book of love we’re a million to one
Let’s bring back (Bring back) the memories, ooh
(Bring back the memories)
You’re a thousand miles away
(Bring back the memories)
Earth angel, Earth angel, will you be mine
(Bring back the memories)
And I don’t have love to share
(Bring back the memories)
Hey there lonely girl, tears on my pillow
(Bring back the memories)
As I walk through this world, nothing can stop me
(Bring back the memories)
What’s your name, way back, way back
(Bring back the memories)
