Hi Vibes, I'm glad to be here today to share with you one of my favorite songs, as my entry for Vibes Week 31. The song that I'm singing is Bruno Mars - When I Was Your Man.
It's funny how people realize the value of what they have only after they've lost it. The song expresses the pain and hurt, that is felt when you take love for granted. The lyrics teaches to cherish the person that you love, and do your best to be there for them.
The highs and lows of this song always get my soft side. I like the dynamics of the music, and it gave me an opportunity to extend my vocals. It's a rich song with so much harmony and melody that always makes my heart warm.
Lyrics
Same bed but it feels just a little bit bigger now
Our song on the radio but it don't sound the same
When our friends talk about you, all it does is just tear me down
'Cause my heart breaks a little when I hear your name
It all just sounds like oooooh…
Mmm, too young, too dumb to realize
That I should've bought you flowers
And held your hand
Should've gave you all my hours
When I had the chance
Take you to every party
'Cause all you wanted to do was dance
Now my baby's dancing
But she's dancing with another man
My pride, my ego, my needs, and my selfish ways
Caused a good strong woman like you to walk out my life
Now I'll never, never get to clean up the mess I made, ohh…
And it haunts me every time I close my eyes
It all just sounds like oooooh…
Mmm, too young, too dumb to realize
That I should've bought you flowers
And held your hand
Should've gave you all my hours
When I had the chance
Take you to every party
'Cause all you wanted to do was dance
Now my baby's dancing
But she's dancing with another man
Although it hurts
I'll be the first to say that I was wrong
Oh, I know I'm probably much too late
To try and apologize for my mistakes
But I just want you to know
I hope he buys you flowers
I hope he holds your hand
Give you all his hours
When he has the chance
Take you to every party
'Cause I remember how much you loved to dance
Do all the things I should have done
When I was your man
Do all the things I should have done
When I was your man Src
