[Verse 1] I still remember that hazy September I've been waiting for somebody like you to come back around We would walk in the park every Saturday Brand new, all in love, kissing time away You was all up on me, it was plain to see that I was your girl Way back when it was the simple thing Anklets, nameplates that you gave to me SweeTarts, Ring Pops, and that candy bling And you were my world [Pre-Chorus] Now I wish I could go back and make time stop I would take this love throwback from the top Go DJ, play my song And I'mma think about you all night long [Chorus] Back in the days we were in love We're not in love anymore But somedays I sit and wish we was in love again Back in the days we were in love We're not in love anymore But somedays I sit and wish we was in love again It was personal things we would do Fall asleep on the phone and skipping school Now I'm back to the future missing you My sweet baby, my sweet thang like candy Felt like real love not just play, play Missing you, my sweet baby [Verse 2] It was everything that I could do to stay awake And I often reminisce about the games we played It was Tag, Chess, Spin The Bottle Then bu*terflies would last till tomorrow Then the lights came on I had to run right home [Pre-Chorus] And now I wish I could go back and make time stop And I would take this love throwback from the top Go DJ, play my song
And I'ma think about you all night long [Chorus] Back in the days we were in love We're not in love anymore But somedays I sit and wish we was in love again Back in the days we were in love We're not in love anymore But somedays I sit and wish we was in love again It was personal things we would do Fall asleep on the phone and skipping school Now I'm back to the future missing you My sweet baby, my sweet thang like candy Felt like real love not just play, play Missing you, my sweet baby [Bridge] I'm the same Mimi, fame ain't change me bu*terfly flow like Muhammad Ali Wish I can bring you back like the O.D.B Thinking 'bout the world plus me, you, and Jack No matter what I do, well, the memories are stacked Thinking 10th Grade, thinking 'bout eleven When you went doggy fresh All the way to heaven, heaven, heaven [Chorus] Back in the days we were in love We're not in love anymore But somedays I sit and wish we was in love again Back in the days we were in love We're not in love anymore But somedays I sit and wish we was in love again It was personal things we would do Fall asleep on the phone and skipping school Now I'm back to the future missing you My sweet baby, my sweet thang like candy Felt like real love not just play, play Missing you, my sweet baby My sweet baby, my sweet thang like candy Felt like real love not play, play Sayin' you're my sweet baby
