Come and Get These Memories Songtext
von Martha and The Vandellas

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 anymore.

Lover, you′ve gone from me
And left behind so many memories.
(So many memories)

Here′s that old teddy bear
(Come and get it.)
That you've 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 me 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 and get 'em.)
Since you′ve gone out of my life
(Come and get 'em.)
So my mind and my heart can leave that easy
(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 and get these memories
(Come and get ′em.)
Since you've gone out of my life.
