Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I could have treated you better
I let you get away
There goes my happily ever after
Tell me why, why can't we try and start again?
This can't be how our story ends
You're more than my girl, you're my best friendTell me you remember when
Oooh, I was your man and you were my girl
It was you and me against the world
Baby, ain't nobody gonna love me like the way you do
And you ain't never gonna find a love like mine
Tell me what can I do to make it up to you?
'Cause what we got's too good to say goodbye, goodbye
Yeah, I'm still in love with you darlin'
I know you feel the same
Oh, what's the point of both of us being broken hearted?
I pray it's never too late
So tell me, why, why can't we try and start again?
This can't be how our story ends
You're more than my girl, you're my best friend
Tell me you remember when
I was your man and you were my girl
It was you and me against the world
Baby, ain't nobody gonna love me like the way you do
And you ain't never gonna find a love like mine
Tell me what can I do to make it up to you?
'Cause what we got's too good to say goodbye, goodbye
Girl won't you listen?
(Don't you give up)
It's you that I'm missin'
(Don't you give up)
Take my hand, I wanna go, I wanna go
(All the way)
If we're gonna fight this fight for better days
I know we're gonna make it
This is the chance, let's take it
Baby, ain't nobody gonna love me like the way you do
(No, no, no, no)
And you ain't never gonna find a love like mine
Tell me what can I do to make it up to you?
'Cause what we got's too good to say goodbye
(Come on, come on, come on) goodbye (Oh baby)
Baby, ain't nobody gonna love me like the way you do
And you ain't never gonna find a love like mine
(Oh, tell me)
Tell me what can I do to make it up to you?
'Cause what we got's too good to say goodbye, goodbye
The lyrics of "Too Good To Say Goodbye" by Bruno Mars are about the singer's regret and realization of his mistakes in a past relationship. He acknowledges that he was not the best partner to his significant other and takes the blame for their separation. Despite the pain and heartache, he still loves and cares for her deeply and wants to make things right. He pleads with her to give him another chance and start over again, emphasizing the strength of their bond and how special their relationship is. The song ends with the singer expressing his hope for a happy ending and that they can fight for a better future together.
There is a notable vulnerability and sincerity in the lyrics, especially with lines such as "I could have treated you better" and "what's the point of both of us being broken-hearted?" The song explores themes of regret, forgiveness, and the importance of communication in relationships. The chorus is particularly impactful, with the repetition of "Baby, ain't nobody gonna love me like the way you do, and you ain't never gonna find a love like mine" driving home the singer's devotion to his significant other.
