New Kids On The Block Lyrics

"Bring Back The Time"
(feat. En Vogue, Rick Astley & Salt-N-Pepa)

Hey, hey
Oh-oh, oh

Tonight
Replay it in your mind
Like it was yesterday
We had that secret place
Where we would hide
And count the stars in the sky
And the promises we made were for life

And I know the years go by
But it's nothing we can't rewind

Bring back the time
The heart, it never changes
And inside we're still the same kids
We were back in '89
So bring back the time
You know we still got the magic
There's nothing that can take away this
Feeling that we have tonight

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Bring back the time

We came in the door
We said it before
Back in the days we was young, we had a ball
Bikinis; small
Heels tall
Hangin' all day at the beach and the mall
Like Rick, we rolled
New Kids, En Vogue
Plus a pinch of Salt-N-Pepa seasoning
Here we go
Deja vu
Tell you what we gon' do
We gon' bring it back with you, for real

And I know the years go by
But it's nothing we can't rewind

Bring back the time
The heart, it never changes
And inside we're still the same kids
We were back in '89
So bring back the time
You know we still got the magic
There's nothing that can take away this
Feeling that we have tonight

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Bring back the time
You always bring it back for me
Bring back the time

Let's go team, let's go
Let's go team, let's go
Come on
Let's go team, let's go (Let's go back)
Hey
Let's go team, let's go (Back in time)
Let's go, yeah
Let's go team, let's go (Are you ready?)
Let's go
Let's go team, let's go
Let's go!

Yeah, I know the years go by (The years go by, yeah)
But tonight (Tonight, tonight, tonight)
We're gonna rewind the time

Bring back the time
The heart, it never changes
And inside we're still the same kids
We were back in '89 (Yeah)
So bring back the time
You know we still got the magic
There's nothing that can take away
This feeling that we have tonight

(No, no, no, no, no) Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Bring back the time

Why don't you
Bring back the time?

Donnie Wahlberg of New Kids On The Block told Billboard about "Bring Back The Time" on the 3rd of March, 2022, "Of course it's very complicated to coordinate so many artists of this magnitude, who all have careers and lives and families, including just in my own band. But it's easy to overcome those complications when you're so inspired. Every single artist was so excited to jump in and be a part of this song. It's an anthem. It's uplifting. It's fun and it's exactly what we could all use right now. And that excitement from everyone motivated me to figure this out. Same for the music video. I wasn't going to stop at a few scheduling roadblocks, especially when everyone was so willing. It makes me incredibly excited for the tour, too."

The music video for this track was inspired by the 1980s and 1990s videos such as Journey's "Separate Ways", Twisted Sister's "We're Not Gonna Take It," Michael Jackson's "Beat It", Duran Duran's "Rio", Billy Idol's "Flesh for Fantasy" etc. "It really is a celebration of the music and the look and the videos of that era," Donnie Wahlberg told Billboard. "For us and our fans, that's when we met. That's when we would count the stars in the sky. We made a promise for life back then, that we would always be their band and they would always be our fans and we would always have this relationship."
