  • Hey Frankie?

    I was walking down the street one day
    When I looked up I saw a friend

    Hey Frankie, do you remember me?

    He looked at me and then I blushed
    'Cause I remembered I loved you so much
    Way back then we were friends
    Going together but then you left me

    Frankie, do you remember me?
    Frankie, do you remember?

    You were fifteen, I was twelve
    It was summer, we were so in love.
    I never loved anyone this much
    Look at me, I'm thrilled to your touch.

    Hey Frankie, do you remember me?
    Frankie, do you remember?

    Oh how you brought me down (down, down)
    All I did was run around (around)
    You'll never know how much I loved you

    Frankie, do you remember?
    Do you remember me?
    Frankie

    You walked me to the Deli then
    We sat in the booth where it all began
    I looked into your big eyes and
    Said to myself we coulda had twins

    Hey Frankie, do you remember?

    Oh how you brought me down (down, down)
    All I did was run around (around)
    You'll never know how much I loved you

    He looked at me
    And then I blushed
    'Cause I remembered when I loved you so much
    Way back when we were friends
    Going together but then you left me

    Frankie, do you remember me?
    Frankie, do you remember me?

    Frankie, do you remember me?
    Do you remember me? Me, Frankie

    Oh Frankie, oh Frankie my baby
    Do you remember me?

    Frankie, do you remember me?
    Frankie, do you remember me?

    Do you remember me? Me, Frankie
    My Frankie, my baby Frankie, do you remember me?
    Frankie, do you remember me?
