Welcome
Maxwell(맥스웰) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I guess it never was
The way I thought it was
I say this only just because
You never came to love
I guess it wasn't so
Guess that's how the story goes
You didn't dig my flow
You didn't dig my flow

But you're still welcome,welcome
Anytime you want some
Make yourself at home cause you're
Welcome

Tonight will make one week
Tonight's the anniversary
And if you don't talk to me
Tomorrow will never be

But you're still welcome,welcome
Anytime you want some
Make yourself at home cause you're
Welcome

Six in the morning everything's nothing
Six in the eve everything's still the same
Wish you knew I just wish that you knew that
I really love you deep like a mother loves a child
I want to love you like hot water running wild
Inside you momma sophisticated style
Check my dictionary

I guess it never was the way I thought it was
I say this only because




You never came to love
Welcome

Overall Meaning

The song "Welcome" by Maxwell has lyrics that convey a sense of longing and regret. The singer acknowledges that things did not turn out the way he envisioned, and he is disappointed because the person he loves did not reciprocate his feelings. He says that he is still welcome anytime, but he seems to be speaking more to himself than to the object of his affection. The singer expresses his feelings of love and devotion, wishing that the person would understand the depth of his emotions.


The chorus of the song repeats the word "Welcome," implying that the person is always welcome to be a part of his life. However, the singer also acknowledges that they may never be able to be with each other, as he says "Tomorrow will never be" if they don't talk soon. The final verse of the song reinforces the sense of regret and lost opportunity, with the singer longing to express his feelings fully but unable to do so.


Overall, the song "Welcome" by Maxwell is a melancholy but beautiful expression of unrequited love and longing, with heartfelt lyrics and soulful music that perfectly capture the emotions of the singer.

This is the best R&B LP of the '90s, period. You just press play and let it do what it do. No skips whatsoever. My emotional attachment to it only gets stronger as time goes on.
