I stumbled on this photograph
It kinda made me laugh
It took me way back
Back down memory lane

I see the happiness... i see the pain
Where am i... back down memory lane

I see us standing there
Such a happy happy pair
Love beyond compare
Look-a-there look-a-there

The way you held me... no one could tell me
That love would die... why oh why
Did i have to find this photograph
Thought i had forgot the past
But now I'm slippin' fast
Back down memory lane

I feel the happiness... i feel the pain
Here am i... back down memory lane
I'm in the sunshine... I'm in the rain

I don't want to go traveling down
Faster than the speed of sound
Back down memory lane
Be still my foolish heart
Don't let this feelin' start
Back down memory lane
I don't want to go... save me save me

    Lyric Correction:I stumbled on this photograph... it kind of made me laugh...
    It took me way back - back down Memory Lane...

    I see the happiness, I see the pain;
    Where am I? Back down Memory Lane...

    I see us standing there, such a happy, happy pair;
    Love beyond compare - Look-a there, look-a there...

    The way you held me, no one could tell me that love would die...
    Oh, why...

    Did I have to find this photograph? I thought I had forgot the past...
    Now I'm slippin' fast, oh, back down Memory Lane...

    I feel the happiness, I feel the pain;
    Here am I, back down Memory Lane...

    I'm in the sunshine, I'm in the rain;
    I thought it was over, here I go again...

    The way you held me, no one could tell me that love would die...

    I don't wanna go travelin' down, faster that the speed of sound...
    Back down Memory Lane...

    Be still, my foolish heart - don't let this feeling start...
    Back down Memory Lane...

    I, I, I, I don't wanna go... ooh-ooh-ooh-hoo-hoo...
    (Back down Memory Lane...)
    Save me! Save me! Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh...
    (Back down Memory Lane...)
    Save me! Save me, save me, save me...
    (Back down Memory Lane...)
    Ooh, woo, woo...
    (Back down Memory Lane...)
