We Belong Together
玛利雅.凯莉Mariah Carey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I didn't mean it
When I said I didn't love you, so
I should have held on tight
I never shoulda let you go
I didn't know nothing
I was stupid, I was foolish
I could not fathom that I would ever
Be without your love
Never imagined I'd be
Sitting here beside myself
'Cause I didn't know you
'Cause I didn't know me
But I thought I knew everything
I never felt
The feeling that I'm feeling
Now that I don't hear your voice
Or have your touch and kiss your lips
'Cause I don't have a choice
Oh, what I wouldn't give
To have you lying by my side
Right here, cause baby
(We belong together)
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
Come back baby, please
'Cause we belong together
Who else am I gon' lean on
When times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone
Till the sun comes up
Who's gonna take your place
There ain't nobody better
Oh, baby baby, we belong together
I can't sleep at night
When you are on my mind
Bobby Womack's on the radio
Saying to me
"If you think you're lonely now"
Wait a minute
This is too deep (too deep)
I gotta change the station
So I turn the dial
Trying to catch a break
And then I hear Babyface
I only think of you
And it's breaking my heart
I'm trying to keep it together
But I'm falling apart
I'm feeling all out of my element
I'm throwing things, crying
Trying to figure out
Where the hell I went wrong
The pain reflected in this song
It ain't even half of what
I'm feeling inside
I need you
Need you back in my life, baby
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
Come back baby, please
'Cause we belong together
Who else am I gon' lean on
When times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone
Till the sun comes up
Who's gonna take your place
There ain't nobody better
Oh, baby baby, we belong together, baby
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
Come back baby, please
'Cause we belong together
Who am I gonna lean on
When times get rough
Who's gonna talk to me
Till the sun comes up
Who's gonna take your place
There ain't nobody better
Oh baby, baby
We belong together
In Mariah Carey's song We Belong Together, she reflects on a past relationship that ended in heartbreak for her. The lyrics express regret for the mistakes she made and the pain she feels now that her lover has left her. She admits that she was foolish and lied to herself when she said she didn't love him. It's only after he's gone that she realizes how much he meant to her and how lost she feels without him. She longs for him to come back to her, believing that they are meant to be together.
The song is emotional and raw, reflecting the pain of losing someone you love. Mariah's powerhouse vocals add to the intensity of the lyrics, making it an unforgettable ballad. She also references 70's soul singer Bobby Womack's song "If You Think You're Lonely Now" and Babyface's "Two Occasions," adding a touch of nostalgia to the song.
