Where Did We Go Wrong
LTD Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Where did we go wrong
Now tell me what went wrong with love
And maybe we can fix it
What's wrong between us
Where did we go wrong
Now tell me what went wrong with love

It doesn't matter who is right or wrong
It doesn't matter whose to blame
We both have to swallow our pride
To make this love strong, ooh, baby

And we can conquer anything, hey, baby
Together, together, together, together
And if our love was meant to be, oh, girl
We'll find a way to save it
We'll build a road of love, oh, baby

Where did we go wrong
Now won't you tell me what went wrong with love
And maybe we can fix it
What's wrong between us
Where did we go wrong
Now won't you tell me what went wrong with love

I've had a lot of sleepless nights
With this crisis on my mind
Spinnin' ?round with my mind
Searchin' deep within to try to make it right, you and me

We can patch it up again, oh, baby
Together, together, together, together
If our love was meant to be, hey, girl
We'll find a way to save it, we'll build a road of love, oh, baby
Find a way to save it, we'll build a road of love, oh, baby
Find a way to save it, we'll build a road of love
Oh, baby, oh, oh, oh

Where did we go wrong
With love
And maybe we can fix it
What's wrong between us
Where did we go wrong
Yeah, hey, tell me what went wrong with love
And maybe we can fix it, baby, ooh
What's wrong between us

Where did we go wrong
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Tell your baby, tell your baby where did we go wrong
What's wrong between us
Where did we go wrong
Yeah, yeah, maybe we can work it out, work it out, maybe we can work it out
What's wrong between us

Where did we go wrong
Oh, tell your baby what went wrong




Where did we go wrong

We will never hear good ole ballads like this again.
Thank you Jeffrey and LTD for your musical contribution.❤

@ljm25799

I know & it’s sad too. Music is nothing like it use to be.

@Solodolo84

​@ljm25799 it's not the same anymore because people don't love like they used to. If folks got back to love, then r&b will flourish again 🫡💯

@ASJ_Jaa
