Memories Lyrics by Joi

The Pendulum Vibe

1994

Mmmmm, mmm
Hey, hey

[Verse]
Old bittersweet, can't get you off my mind
You always visit me at the strangest times
I wish I knew why you are doing this to me
Always taking me back to where I wish I could be
You really, really should not tease me so
But that's your role to play in life I know
Well, since you're here, you should stay a while
Your beauty dazzles me like trip down the Nile

Memories of how it used to be
Memory of you and me
Memory of how it used to be
Memory of you and me

Why don't you take me, take me, take me back
To the place where I used to be, yeah
Oh those bittersweet, bittersweet memories
Yeah, ahhhh, ahhhh, ahhhh

Why don't you take me back
To the place where I used to be
Take me back, sweet memories
To the place where I used to be
So why don't you take me back to yesterday
The distance of it seems so far away
And why don't you bring it back sweet memory
To the days of how it used to be
Ohhh

So why don't you take me back to yesterday
The memory seems so far away
Take me back sweet memory
To the days of how it used to be
Take me back to yesterday
The memory seems so far away
Take me back sweet memory
To the days of how it used to be

Oh take me, take me, take me back
