and it's untitled. ..... (This was wrote in April 09)Dancin' 'round the house, had the radio blarin'
A familiar voiced filled the air, and
I stopped dead in my tracks 'cause I couldn't believe it.
New Kids on the Block had just released it.
"Summertime" is what they sang, they said it'd never be the same.
Got me thinkin' 'bout back in the day,
and how they stole my heart away.
And all these memories filled my head,
Memories I knew I'd never forget,
So I did a search .....on the internet.
A Reunion Tour is what I found, said they were Atlanta bound.
Called up my girls, gave 'em a hint, said were going on a road trip.
A blast from our past and we can't miss it!
New Kids on the Block are coming back you see.
New kids on the Block are coming back to me!
We got to the arena, found our seats.
Sitin' there waitin' as my heart skipped beats.
When they rose up from the stage, oh man, I was blown away!
Butterflies in my stomach, tears filled my eyes at that moment.
New Kids on the Block came back, you see.
New Kids on the Block came back to me!
Dancin' and singin' along with the crowd.
We didn't care how crazy, or how loud.
Lost in the moment, didn't want to be found.
We stood there, like an army, strong and proud.
New Kids on the Block came back, you see.
New Kids on the Block came back to me!
When the Spring Tour rolled around,
I called up my girls and we did it again.
Jumped in the car and headed to Greenville.
New Kids on the Block came back, you see.
New Kids on the Block came back to me!
This time, I went Five Star! Oh My God, There they are!
Twenty one years, and I can't believe it.
They look just like they did when we were kids!
Never thought I'd see this day, but God, how I hoped and prayed.
It was a dream come true, I'd have to say!
Jon was a sweetheart, his hugs were the best!
Let me tell you about the rest.
Donnie and Danny, we had a moment too.
Jordan was a cutie, Oh my god, I stepped on his shoe!
Then there was the man, with the Baby Blues,
What do I say? What do I do?
He smiled at me, and gave me a wink.
He doesn't know it, but my knees went weak!
He liked my shirt, said I was sweet.
I put my hand to my heart, had to check for a beat!
His eyes, they sparkled like diamonds.
I can't believe I didn't start cryin'!
He made my day, my year, my life.
Even though *I* was supposed to be his wife!
New Kids on the Block came back, you see.
New Kids on the Block came back to me!
Again I stood there with the crowd.
Dancin' like crazy, and singin' real loud.
I had a moment, during that show, when Joe Mac sang his solo.
"Five brothas and a million sistahs, didn't know how much I mised ya'
were the words that he said, and those words stuck in my head.
I looked around at the crowd, standing there, strong and proud.
He's right you know?
We are a family, and the love, ...it shows!
A room full of strangers, brought together by a bond
that formed twenty one years ago.
New Kids on the Block came back, you see.
New Kids on the Block came back to me!
Summer Tour they said, "Full Service" is what you'll get!
The Summer of our lives, and we'll never forget.
So, hop a train, a bus, a car, or a flight,
Just make sure you got your mind right!
Face Time is REAL. There are no fakers in this platoon.
The General has spoken, and his army is in tune!
I called up my girls, they all know the deal.
Atlanta, Ga is where we will get our fill.
The first show of the summer, it's going to be a blast!
Better get your tickets now, they are going fast!
They made history back in the day.
Some people said they were over played.
The critics think they know it all, like when a band will rise or fall.
Nobody knows how it's going to be but, New Kids have again
Made history!
They shocked the world one year ago.
The critics need to just go with the flow!
One day, they will learn, we don't give a d.amn about that they have to say, we do things the NKOTB way!
Blockheads are strong and proud. Mess with our boys,
we will put you on the ground!
We will fight to the death, if that's what it takes. We'll do anything to get the story straight!
Loud and Proud and Strong we are,
Blockheads forever, no need to say any more.
This is one army that won't be defeated,
And you, better believe it!
Anytime we get in a fix, we all get together and shout
LET'S GET THIS!
They didn't do it for the fame, money or glory.
They did it for us,
The fans, supporters,....
Their sistahs that love them adoringly!
New Kids on the Block came back, you see.
New Kids on the Block came back for you, and me!
