Lyrics

[Intro]

Uh, I still remember

That hazy September

I've been waiting for somebody like you to come back around

[Verse 1]

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, mmm

Way back when it was the simple things

Anklets, nameplates that you gave to me

Sweet Tarts, Ring Pops, had that candy bling

And you were my world

[PreChorus]

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'ma think about you all night long

[Chorus]

Back in the day, we were in love, we're not in love anymore

But some days, I sit and wish we was a-one again

Back in the day, we were in love, we're not in love anymore

But some days, I sit and wish we was a-one again

It was personal things we would do

Fall asleep on the phone and skippin' school

Now I'm back to the future missin' you

My sweet baby, my sweet thang

Like candy, felt like real love

Not just play-play

Missing you, my sweet baby (I can't delete your picture from my mind)

[Verse 2]

It was everything that I could do to stay away

And I often reminisce about the games we played

Oh, yeah, it was Tag, Chess, Spin the Bottle

Them butterflies would last till tomorrow

Then the lights came on, I had to run right home

[PreChorus]

And now I wish I could go back and make time stop (Stop, stop)

And I would take this love throwback from the top (Top, top)

Go, DJ, play my song (Song, song)

And I'ma think about you all night long

[Chorus]

Back in the day, we were in love, we're not in love anymore

But some days, I sit and wish we was a-one again

Back in the day, we were in love, we're not in love anymore

But some days, I sit and wish we was a-one again

It was personal things we would do

Fall asleep on the phone and skippin' school

Now I'm back to the future missin' you

My sweet baby, my sweet thang

Like candy, felt like real love

Not just play-play

Missing you, my sweet baby (I can't delete your picture from my mind)

[Bridge]

I'm the same Mimi, fame ain't changed me

Butterfly flow like Muhammad Ali

Wish I could bring you back like the O.D.B.

Thinkin' 'bout the world, plus me, you, and Jack

No matter what I do, all the memories are stacked

Thinkin' 'bout tenth grade, thinkin' 'bout eleventh

Then you went Dougie Fresh, all the way to heaven, heaven, heaven

[PreChorus]

Back in the day, we were in love, we're not in love anymore

But some days, I sit and wish we was a-one again

Back in the day, we were in love, we're not in love anymore

But some days, I sit and wish we was a-one again

[Verse 3]

I said I wish we was, I wish it was just like back in the day

Still remember

Now I'm back in the, now I'm stuck in the future missing you

[Verse 4]

My sweet thang

Like candy, felt like real love

Not just play-play

Missing you, my sweet baby (I can't delete your picture from my mind)

[Verse 5]

My sweet baby, my sweet thang

Like candy, felt like real love

Not just play-play

Missing you, my sweet baby (I can't delete your picture from my mind)
