Diamond, Neil - Hooked On The Memory Of You Lyrics






Stay with me, here with me
I want you near with me
I'm a man
That's hooked on the memory
Of you and I, who knows why?
I only know that I'm sure, I am
Hooked on the memory of you

Time, time standing still
I know it's you, I always will
Need you too,
Lay with me, lie with me
Spend your desire with me, if you can
I'm hooked on the memory
Of you and I, who knows why?
I guess I wanted for you to be
Hooked on the memory of me

Time, time standing still,
I know it's you, I always will
Want you to, be here with me
I want you to stay right here with me
I need you to love with me,
Laugh with me,
Forgive the past with me
I know you can

I'm hooked on the memory
Of you and I, who knows why?
Guess I wanted for you to be
Hooked on the memory of me
Oh you know that it's true
Not a thing I can do
I'm hooked on the memory of you

  2. M.... j....

    Every time I play and listen this song.. God knows how much I miss you. Fred.. until now.. you are always in my heart.. one day we will be together somewhere in heaven...thank you for the memories we had..❤️

  3. J.... W....

    Please remember the good times, only the good times I had hope in my heart for so long. I lost hope and said goodbye. It is only the good times that will heal us when that ever-present pain comes through. I never saw the writing on the wall. It was not to be for you or for me. Time goes fast. Yesterday is in the past. You are so blessed in many ways. I wish you the best for the rest of your days.

  27. B.... N....

    I’ve had the love and memory of one man seared in my heart for many years. It has been the defining chapter of my life. Everything completely changed when I was with him. I knew a depth of love I had no idea could possibly exist. It ended so unexpectedly, and neither of us knew it was going to be the most powerful and unforgettable relationship of our lives.

  28. I.... T....

    Neil tu musica me traspota al mas alla Eres maravilloso ,gran poeta Te amo.

  29. p.... r....

    HIS MUSIC MADE MY LIFE BETTER AND HIGHLIGHTED ALL THE GREAT TIMES GROWING UP !!

  33. T.... T....

    HE IS A NATIONAL TREASURE !!!!

  34. D.... M....

    I believe he is probably the most prolific singer-songwriter with endless music that touches every cord of a persons soul..

    D.... M....

    Sue Carney agrees 100%

    D.... M....

    Neil soothes my very soul

    D.... M....

    @Sue Carney First he exposes my heart and soul to such pain and joy that I never dreamed possible and then he heals them through his words and music making me stronger, more capable of love, and a much better person as well. Love the man, the music, the moments he's shared.

    D.... M....

    Look up Justin Hayward and The Moody Blues for comparison and depth... Neil’s in good company...

  35. l.... ....

    What an absolutely beautiful song, sang by the best male singer in the history of music.... Thanks for sharing it...

    E eu sou. Quem sabe por quê?
    Eu acho que o que eu gostaria que você seja

    Beautiful song! Красивая песня! "Увлеченный памятью о тебе " Перевод: Останься со мной, здесь, со мной
    Я хочу, чтобы ты была рядом со мной
    Я - мужчина,который подсел на память о тебе
    И я. Кто знает, почему?
    Я знаю только, что я уверен, что я
    Увлеченный памятью о тебе

    Время, время стоит на месте
    Я знаю, это ты
    я всегда буду
    Нуждаться в тебе Ложись со мной; ляг со мной
    Проведи твоё желание со мной
    Если ты можешь
    Я подсел на память о тебе
    И я. Кто знает, почему?
    Я предполагаю, что я хотел бы, чтобы ты была
    Увлеченной памятью обо мне

    Время, время стоит на месте
    Я знаю, это ты
    я всегда буду
    Хотеть, чтобы ты
    Здесь была остроумнее меня
    Я хочу, чтобы ты осталась здесь со мной
    Мне нужно, чтобы ты любила со мной
    Смейся со мной
    Прости прошлое мне
    я знаю, что ты можешь
    Я подсел на память о тебе
    И я. Кто знает, почему?
    Наверное, я просто хотел, чтобы ты была
    Увлеченной памятью обо мне

    Ой, ты знаешь, что это - правда

    Не, что я могу сделать,

    Я подсел на память о тебе

    lady oh the story of my life let me take you in my arms again to make you feel my love . remember me as im hooked on the memory of you,and if i dont see you again,the sun aint gonna shine anymore

  57. F.... ....

    Neil Diamond was my sister's favourite singer. Not necessarily this song but this is for her from me today

    For all of my life I had the privilege of knowing the loveliest person -  my older sister Dorothy.

    A year ago today we lost this amazing person. No words will ever describe how I feel about it, but ones which comes pretty close are that I feel I have part of me missing.

    I always thought we would have more time together. I think of her and miss her every single day.

    RIP Big Sis - I'll love you always.

    F.... ....

    F.... ....

    God be with you. I'm sure your sister looks down on you with love, and you will her again.

    F.... ....

    God bless your sister.
    I'm sure she's listening to Neil's songs from heaven.
    My grandmother died a year ago too. I miss her every day.
    Regards from Spain

  58. B.... K....

    beautiful song.... can't stop thinking about it....

  59. s.... ....

    I wanna hear the original, with Kim Carnes, offf the album Love Scapes.  Listen to it.  You will agree.

    s.... ....

    Actually this one is the original version - from 1988. The duet with Kim Carnes was from the Lovescape album in 1991.

    s.... ....

    not me this is the version

  60. s.... c....

    ahhhh finally found it!!!!

  61. C.... S....

    Beautiful Song <3

  62. M.... J....

    Always the memory stays, so poetic, remembering someone forever.from Cabanatuan City, Philippines

  63. G.... T....

    Beautiful words. So true.

  64. R.... M....

    My mother passed in 1990, very shortly after I heard "I've been this way before" for the first time. It makes me feel like you knew my mother and it brings tears every time I listen to it. Then in 09 my wife left me and again shortly after that I heard Hooked on the memory of you. Mr. Diamond what an honor and a privilege it would be just to meet you and having heard you had a degenerating condition of your vocal cords was a blow to me.

  65. R.... M....

    I think there is only one other Artist who equals up to Neil and his ability to convey his feelings with the god given talent to share his feelings in words and music, the most civilized thing mankind has and the other is Gordon Lightfoot. It would be one of the greatest pleasures of my life just to sit and have a conversation over a cup of coffee with either one of them if only just to try and figure out how they are so blessed.

  66. P.... H....

    I agree with you! Neil Diamond doesn't need a duo with any other singer..

  67. A.... L....

    I have one of these...I love you still Scott...

  68. j.... ....

    So Do I..

  69. C.... M....

    I prefer this solo version moreso than the duet w/ Kim Carnes.

  70. d.... s....

    if theyre still alive, tell them. i ll never have that chance . love you robert hunt xxxxx

  71. r.... l....

    If everyone on this earth had the warmth, feelings and wonderfulness that Neil Diamond posseses then wouldn't it be a wonderful world to live in.

  72. W.... B....

    You are so right

  73. W.... B....

    The best singer ever.!!!!! Nobody can be a match for him.!!!!
    love him already 30 years.!!!

  74. t.... m....

    @depptown com certeza muita coisa mexeu

  75. c.... l....

    lots of sad memories stirred but in a good way

  76. m.... ....

    As the years pass never forget the reason's the two of you fell in love. Hold on to hope and don't let doubt and the pressures of today's life overshadow those memories. Love to all.....

  77. F.... D....

    Now y'all made me question myself, so I had to go back and look. This was the original release without Kim, in 1988 on the Best Years of Our Lives album, like the post says, and then the duet with Kim didn't come out till 1991 on the Lovescape album. I like this one better. Kim's sexy raspy voice is ok, but they sang it straight, sounds like they couldn't agree on the sincopation and gave up and just sang it giving all notes equal measure to make it easier. This one is more melodic. Love Neil!!

  78. s.... ....

    @chaksheba - I fully agree with you. The duet sounds better maybe precisely because of Kim's raspy voice.

  79. M.... ....

    i had this album late 80's ,it,s not a diamond classic but hey it,s alright! with production by david foster and great players like dean parks on guitar and david paich on keyboards with lukather also on guitars a pleasant ride for all!!

  80. c.... l....

    it doesn't get more beautiful than this

  81. D.... K....

    @cheyennefan223 She has a raspy voice yes but I still feel it works much better and has more meaning as a duet. After all he did write it first as a duet =)

  82. c.... ....

    I have to disagree with you about it working better as a duet. Kim Carnes voice didn't blend well with Neil's whatsoever- it works better with Neil's beautiful voice alone.

  83. D.... K....

    This was originally a duet with Kim Carnes and works better that way. I love Neil and saw im 2 times in concert. Genius is correct! But I still think this works better as a duet. It is from my fav album of his LOVESCAPE.
