Lyrics
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 them any more
Lover, you've gone from me
And left behind so many memories
Here's that old teddy bear (Come and get it)
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
Lover, you've gone from me
And left behind so many memories
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Come and get 'em
Come and get 'em
Come and get 'em)
Here's our old favorite record (Come and get it)
I can't stand to hear it anymore
Here's some old lingering love (Come and get it)
It's in my heart
And it's tearing it apart
Because of these memories
I never think of anybody but you
So, come on and get 'em
'Cause I found me somebody new
Come and get these memories, come on (Come and get 'em)
(Since you've gone out of my life)
So my mind and my heart can be at ease, come (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 on
(Come and get 'em)
(Since you’ve gone out of my life)
So my mind and my heart can be at ease, come (Come and get 'em)
