Come And Get These Memories lyrics

By Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier and Eddie Holland

Lover you`ve gone from me and left behind
So many memories

Here`s your old friendship ring
I can`t wear it no more
Here`s your old love letters
I can`t read `em anymore

Chorus:
Lover you`ve gone from me and left behind
So many memories

Here`s that old Teddy Bear (come and get `em)
That you won for me at the State Fair
Here`s some old Valentine cards (come and get `em)
Give them to your new sweetheart

Repeat Chorus
So many memories

Repeat Chorus
So many memories (so many memories)

Here`s your old favourite record
I can`t stand to hear it no more (no more)
Here`s some old lingering love (come and get `em)
It`s in my heart and it`s tearing it apart
Because of these memories
I never thought of anybody but you
So come on and get `em
`Cause I found me somebody new
And I love him

So come on and get these memories (come and get `em, since you`ve gone out
of my life)
Come and get these memories, boy (come and get `em, since you`ve gone out
of my life)
Give them to your new love...
Give them to your new love...

So come on and get these memories
(Come and get `em since you`ve gone out of my life)

Give them to your new love...
Repeat and fade
