We Belong Together
Miguel Escueta Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I said I didn't love you, so
I should have held on tight
I never should've let you go
I didn't know nothing
I was stupid, I was foolish
I was lying to myself
I could not fathom that I would ever
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
throwing things, crying
Trying to figure out
Where the hell I went wrong
The pain reflected in this song
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
Miguel Escueta's We Belong Together conveys a strong message of regret and longing for a lost love. The song expresses the singer's regret and apologies for the mistakes he made in the past by lying to himself and not realizing the worth of his partner. The lyrics suggest that he never imagined being without the love of his life and that he desperately wants them back. He acknowledges the emptiness he feels and the pain of not having his former love's touch or hearing their voice. He highlights the idea of leaning on someone during tough times and emphasizes that no one is better than his former love.
The bridge of the song is impactful as it portrays the pain that the singer is going through. He talks about not being able to sleep, being in despair, and crying. He tries to distract himself with music, but even the lyrics of the songs remind him of his former love. The chorus repeats that they belong together and how important their presence is in his life. The overall theme revolves around the emotions of sadness, loneliness, and regret.

I didn't mean it
I regret what I said before
When I said I didn't love you, so
I lied when I said I don't love you
I should have held on tight
I should have not let you go
I never should've let you go
I was stupid to let you go
I didn't know nothing
I was ignorant about the situation
I was stupid, I was foolish
I acted naive and reckless
I was lying to myself
I was deceiving myself about my feelings
I could not fathom that I would ever
I couldn't imagine that I would be without your love
Be without your love
I realize how much I love you
Never imagined I'd be
I didn't expect to be
Sitting here beside myself
I'm alone and distraught
Cause I didn't know you
I didn't fully understand or appreciate you
Cause I didn't know me
I didn't know my true feelings
But I thought I knew everything
I was arrogant about my knowledge
I never felt
I've never experienced
The feeling that I'm feeling
The pain and emptiness I'm feeling without you
Now that I don't hear your voice
I miss the sound of your voice
Or have your touch and kiss your lips
I miss the physical intimacy we shared
Cause I don't have a choice
I can't change the past and I'm helpless without you
Oh, what I wouldn't give
I would do anything to have you back
To have you lying by my side
I want you to be here with me
Right here, cause baby
I need you close to me
(We belong together)
We are meant to be together
When you left I lost a part of me
I feel incomplete without you
It's still so hard to believe
I'm having a hard time accepting your absence
Come back baby, please
Please come back to me
Who else am I gon' lean on
I have no one else to rely on
When times get rough
When things are difficult
Who's gonna talk to me on the phone
Who will be there for me to talk to
Till the sun comes up
All night long
Who's gonna take your place
There's no one who can replace you
There ain't nobody better
No one can compare to you
Oh, baby baby, we belong together
We are meant to be together
I can't sleep at night
I'm having trouble staying asleep
When you are on my mind
You're always on my mind
Bobby Womack's on the radio
I'm listening to Bobby Womack on the radio
saying to me
He's singing to me
"If you think you're lonely now"
The song's lyrics are speaking to my current situation
Wait a minute
Hold on a second
This is too deep (too deep)
The song is hitting too close to home
I gotta change the station
I need to listen to something else
So I turn the dial
I twist the radio knob
Trying to catch a break
I'm looking for a moment of relief
And then I hear Babyface
I hear Babyface's music playing
I only think of you
I can't stop thinking about you
And it's breaking my heart
It hurts me deeply
I'm trying to keep it together
I'm struggling to maintain my composure
But I'm falling apart
I'm losing control
I'm feeling all out of my element
I'm out of my comfort zone
throwing things, crying
I'm losing my temper and crying
Trying to figure out
I'm attempting to understand
Where the hell I went wrong
I'm struggling to understand what I did wrong
The pain reflected in this song
The lyrics of this song resonate with my pain
ain't even half of what
The song can't convey the full extent of my pain
I'm feeling inside
I'm experiencing deep emotional pain
I need you
I need you in my life
Need you back in my life, baby
I need you to come back to me
Who am I gonna lean on
I have no one to rely on
Oh baby, baby
Oh my darling

matagal ko nang gustong magkaron ng male version to .. at thank god miguel is one of them :)) nice vocals ..
Clarence Cabanero
We Belong Together is meant to be a very vocal song. I think this version lost much of the impact because it lost the vocalization that Mariah did so fantastically. And whoever said this is better than the original is just plain crazy. Mariah OWNS the song legitimately and no one can outdo the original no matter how hard they try.
oppa jisso
I really like this version of We Belong Together... mas lalo kong nagustuhan tong song na to dahil dito sa version ni Miguel.
