The words "Remembering The Things We Use To Do, The Places We Use To Go, And Everything Was So So Mellow?" come from the song 'I Do Love You' by the band GQ. This is not to be confused with the song of the same name written by Stevie Wonder for The Beach Boys' self-titled 1985 album.
The full lyrics to 'I Do Love You' are as follows:Woah! I love you so right now
My, my, baby hey-ey yeah
Little darlin' I said I love you so right now
Never, never gonna let, gonna let, gonna let
You go, no, no, no
Pretty little baby I say
I want you t'try to understand
That I, I want to be...
Your lovin' man, babe
My baby I love you so-o-o
And I don't want you to go, no, no
Why don't you listen to me, yeah
I'm beggin you on bented knees
Oh, my girl
I pray that your love
It would come to me, someday
Because I love you so bad
Girl, it's about to drive me mad, girl I say
I love you so right now
Pretty baby, pretty baby
I love you so right now
Oh, baby, I love you so-o-o
And I don't want you to go, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Why, why don't you listen to me
I'm beggin' you on bented knees
Oh-Oh...
(Instrumental)
Oh! I, I, I... I
It's just an oldie but goodie
Like the good ol' days
When the ladies treat you so, so good
Remembering the things
We use to do
The places we use to go
And ev'rything was so, so mello-o-o-o...
Oh, Oh-o-o
I love you so right now
I love you so right now
I love you so right now
I love you so right now
