Lloyd Ft Lil Wayne Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Where were you on our wedding day?
I got bad news that you went away
Where were you on our wedding day?
You did me wrong and now you must pay

Whoa oh,give me back my ring,whoa oh
Whoa oh,I ain't gonna let you keep a thing,whoa oh
Where were you when I said I do?
Everybody laughed at my in-laws too
Where were you when I turned around?
When your whole family hung their heads down

Whoa oh,give me back my ring,whoa oh
Whoa oh,I ain't gonna let you keep a thing,whoa oh

Whoa oh,give me back my ring,whoa oh
Whoa oh,I ain't gonna let you keep a thing,whoa oh

Where were you when I searched the town?
Turned the whole neighborhood upside down
Where were you little girl I say?
Where were you on our wedding day?

Whoa oh,give me back my ring,whoa oh
Whoa oh,I ain't gonna let you keep a thing,whoa oh

It's been ten years or maybe more
I never got married and that's for sure
You broke my heart and now I know
I've been a fool for you so here I go

Whoa oh,give me back my ring,whoa oh
Whoa oh,I ain't gonna let you keep a thing,whoa oh





Whoa oh,give me back my ring,whoa oh
Whoa oh,I ain't gonna let you keep a thing,whoa oh

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Lloyd Ft Lil Wayne's "Where Were You" depict a break-up song from the perspective of the person who was wronged. The song begins with the singer lamenting the fact that their partner wasn't present on their wedding day, only to discover that they had gone away. The chorus where the singer demands for their ring back and declares that they will not let their now ex-partner keep anything sets the tone for the rest of the song. In the second verse, they address the embarrassment the partner caused them on their wedding day, as everyone laughed at their in-laws. The singer then asks where their partner was when they turned around and found out that their whole family was hanging their heads down in shame.


The third and final verse continues the theme of the singer looking for their partner, searching the whole town for them, but they were nowhere to be found. The song ends with the singer confessing that they still haven't moved on from the break-up, which happened ten years ago, but they have finally realized that they've been a fool for staying with their partner for so long.


Overall, the song touches on themes of betrayal, heartbreak, and finally acceptance. Lloyd and Lil Wayne manage to convey these themes with poignant lyrics that tug at the heartstrings while maintaining a catchy melody.
