[Intro]
Ee, ee-ee, ee-ee, ee
Oh, ooh, ooh
Oh, old memories
They don't go away, no
They don't go

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 1]
Old memories, they don't go away
They show up before you leave
And disappear when you wish they'd stay
No heart is immune, no secret is kept
Yeah, they only get stronger with age
Old memories, they don't go away

[Verse 2]
Old love songs, they don't ever end
Just when you think that you've moved on
They remind you, you ain't over it
They sneak in thе dark, creep in your bed
Playing over the loss in your hеad
Old love songs, they don't ever end

[Chorus]
It's a problem, I'm telling you
Makes you temperamental
It takes all of the best of you
You ain't gon' never let go, oh

[Verse 3]
Old photographs, never fade away
They're just frozen there in time
Locked in pretty picture frames
The bridges we burn (Yeah, yeah), the once happiness (Yeah, yeah)
It's a black and white that you can't change
Old photographs never fade away

[Chorus]
It's a problem, I'm telling you (Telling you)
Makes you temperamental (Temperamental)
It takes all of the best of you (The best of you)
You ain't gon' never let go, oh, oh, ooh

[Outro]
Look at me (Look at me)
Lost in yesterday (Lost in yesterday)
Thought that I was over you (Over you)
But you haunt me in every way
My heart is with you (Yeah, yeah), the secret is out (Yeah, yeah)
And it only gets stronger with age (Only gets stronger with age)
Old memories, of you and me
They don't go away
Woah, ooh-woah, ooh-woah, ooh-woah
