Monica Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh, yeah, yes
Oh, oh-oh
Ooh, my, my
Here we are, face to face
With the memories that can't be erased
Although we need each other
Sometimes it makes me wonder
Where would I be (where would I be?)
If you hadn't discovered?
Which I did, inside of me
I know there was something that we could compare
Oh, well, I
Never meant to cause you no pain
I just wanna go back to being the same
Well, I only wanna make things right
Before you walk out my life
Uh, uh
Yeah
Remembering the good times
From a portrait hung up high (hanging so high)
It's filled with so much color
And the laughter we left behind
I made the choice and you couldn't decide
I made the choice, I was wrong, you were right
Deep down inside, I apologize
Never meant to cause you no pain
I just wanna go back to being the same
Well, I only wanna make things right
Before you walk out my life
Well, I never meant to cause you no pain (oh-oh, yeah)
I just wanna go back to being the same
Well, I only wanna make things right
Before you walk out my life, hey
Though I made plans with you
To always have time for you
Before you walk out of my life
I guess it's true
Cannot live without you
Don't ever go away
Ooh, oh, yeah-yeah
Never meant to cause you no pain (baby, yeah)
I just wanna go back to being the same
Well, I only wanna make things right, baby
Before you walk out my life, oh, yeah
Never meant to cause you no pain
I just wanna go back to being the same
(I wanna go back, I wanna go back, baby)
I only wanna make things right (yeah, yeah)
Before you walk out my life (out of my life, baby)
Never meant to cause you no pain (baby, believe me)
I just wanna go back to being the same (being, baby, yeah)
Well I, I only wanna make things right
Before you walk out my life (before you walk out of my life)
Before you walk out my life

Here we are, face to face
With the memories that can't be erased
We’re now seeing each other again, and we’re reminded of the good times that we had that are now over and can never be forgotten.

Things have changed, it's not the same

Although we still care for each other, our relationship has changed and we're not the same people we were. I wonder where I’d be if you hadn't been a part of my life and helped me learn more about myself. I’m still confident that we have something in common.
