School-Yard Crushes

Verse 1

We were innocent with nothing much to lose

Remember school-yard crushes and the first kiss blues

Remember summer nights, those long, sweet rides

And all those little secrets that we used to confide

Verse 2

Nobody knew just how much we cared

And all the little feelings that were silently there

We were young and free, just you and me

And now I'd give anything to go back and to see

Chorus

Mm, baby, baby

Take me back to that ol' school lovin'

Makin' my heart jump

Oh, baby, baby

Back when the party was all about us

It was that hot stuff

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Verse 3

A couple boys, a couple girls, all hanging around

You were Mr. Cool, and baby, I would never frown

And with a little help from my best girlfriend

We'd catch a movie show and try not to hold hands

Verse 4

It was the first time that I ever felt this way

I'd never been in love, but I just had to say

"I need you here, I need you now"

But we had to take it slow, oh, that's how it goes

Chorus

Mm, baby, baby

Take me back to that ol' school lovin'

Makin' my heart jump

Oh, baby, baby

Back when the party was all about us

It was that hot stuff

Baby, baby

Take me back to that ol' school lovin'

Makin' my heart jump

Oh, baby, baby

Back when the party was all about us

It was that hot stuff

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Bridge

Sometimes I wish that time

Would just slow down

Maybe if only I

Could turn it around

No one knows how much

My heart is missin' you

'Cause I just can't let go

Of that ol' school lovin'

Chorus

Mm, baby, baby

Take me back to that ol' school lovin'

Makin' my heart jump

Oh, baby, baby

Back when the party was all about us

It was that hot stuff

Baby, baby

Take me back to that ol' school lovin'

Makin' my heart jump

Oh, baby, baby

Back when the party was all about us

It was that hot stuff

Outro

Baby, baby

Take me back to that ol' school lovin'

Makin' my heart jump

Oh, baby, baby (ooh)

Back when the party was all about us

It was that hot stuff

Baby, baby

Take me back to that ol' school lovin'

Makin' my heart jump

Oh, baby, baby

Back when the party was all about us

It was that hot stuff
