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
And way back then 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
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
Back in the day we were in love, we're not in love anymore
But some days I sit and wish we was in love again
Back in the day we were in love, we're not in love anymore
But some days I sit and wish we was in love again
Irresponsible 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 thing like candy
Felt like real love not just play, play
Missing you, my sweet baby
I can't delete your picture from my mind
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 wouldn't last till tomorrow
Then the lights came on, I had to run right home
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'mma think about you all night long
Back in the day we were in love, we're not in love anymore
But some days I sit and wish we was in love again
Back in the day we were in love, we're not in love anymore
But some days I sit and wish we was in love again
Irresponsible things we would do, like
Fall asleep on the phone and skipping school
Now I'm back to the future missing you
My sweet baby, my sweet thing like candy
Felt like real love not just play, play
Missing you, my sweet baby
I can't delete your picture from my mind
I'm the same Mimi, fame ain't changed me
Butterfly floating like Muhammad Ali
Wish I could bring you back like O.D.B
Thinkin' about the whirlpools, me, you and Jack
No matter what I do all the memories is stacked
Something about 10th grade, thinking about 11th
Then you went Dougie fresh all the way to heaven
Back in the day we were in love, we're not in love anymore
But some days I sit and wish we was in love again
Back in the day we were in love, we're not in love anymore
But some days I sit and wish we was in love again
Irresponsible things we would do, like
Fall asleep on the phone and skipping school
Now I'm back in the future missing you
My sweet baby, my sweet thing like candy
Felt like real love not just play, play
Missing you my sweet baby
I can't delete your picture from my mind
