Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Uh, uh, uh (hey)

I was thinking bout her, thinkin' bout me (uh, hey)
Thinkin' bout us, what we gon' be (us)
Open my eyes yeah, it was only just a dream (hey)
So I traveled back, down that road (uh)
Will she come back, no one knows (back)
I realize yeah, it was only just a dream

I was at the top and now it's like I'm in the basement
Number one spot and now she find her a replacement
I swear now I can't take it, knowing somebody's got my baby
And now you ain't around baby I can't think
I should've put it down, should've got the ring
'Cause I can still feel it in the air
See her pretty face run my fingers through her hair
My lover, my life, my shawty, my wife
She left me, I'm tied
'Cause I knew that it just ain't right (uh, uh, uh)

I was thinking bout her, thinkin' bout me (uh, hey)
Thinkin' bout us, what we gon' be (us)
Open my eyes yeah, it was only just a dream (hey)
So I traveled back, down that road (uh)
Will she come back, no one knows (back)
I realize yeah, it was only just a dream

When I be ridin' man I swear I see her face at every turn
Tryna get my Usher on but I can't let it burn
And I just hopes she know that she the only one I yearn for
My woman, oh I miss her, when will I learn
Didn't give her all my love, I guess now I got my payback
Now I'm in the club thinking all about my baby
Hey, she was so easy to love
But wait, I guess that love wasn't enough
I'm going through it every time that I'm alone
And now I'm missing, wishing she'd pick up the phone
But she made the decision that she wanted to move on
'Cause I was wrong (uh, uh, uh)

And I was thinking bout her, thinkin' bout me (uh, hey)
Thinkin' bout us, what we gon' be (us)
Open my eyes yeah, it was only just a dream (hey)
So I traveled back, down that road (uh)
Will she come back, no one knows (back)
I realize yeah, it was only just a dream (uh, uh, hey)

If you ever loved somebody put your hands up
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up
And now they're gone and you're wishing you could give them everything (everything)
Said if you ever loved somebody put your hands up
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up
Now they're gone and you're wishing you could give them everything
Uh, uh, uh

I was thinking bout her, thinkin' bout me (uh, hey)
Thinkin' bout us, what we gon' be (us)
Open my eyes yeah, it was only just a dream (hey)
So I traveled back, down that road (uh)
Will she come back, no one knows (back)
I realize yeah, it was only just a dream
Uh, uh, uh

I was thinking bout her, thinkin' bout me (uh, hey)
Thinkin' bout us, what we gon' be (us)
Open my eyes yeah, it was only just a dream (hey)
So I traveled back, down that road (uh)




Will she come back, no one knows (back)
I realize yeah, it was only just a dream

Line by Line Meaning

I was thinking bout her, thinkin' bout me
At one point, I was consumed with thoughts of both myself and my significant other


Thinkin' bout us, what we gon' be
I was contemplating our future together and what it would look like


Open my eyes yeah, it was only just a dream
In reality, everything I had envisioned was not based in truth, but rather a figment of my imagination


So I traveled back, down that road
After realizing my mistake, I retraced my steps to understand where I went wrong


Will she come back, no one knows
At this point, the possibility of reconciliation was not guaranteed


I realize yeah, it was only just a dream
Ultimately, I came to terms with the fact that my aspirations were not grounded in reality and were only a mere fantasy


When I be ridin' man I swear I see her face at every turn
Even when I'm going about my daily routine, thoughts of her constantly haunt me


Tryna get my Usher on but I can't let it burn
I may try to distract myself with music but the pain of losing her still lingers


And I just hopes she know that she the only one I yearn for
Despite everything, she remains the only one I long for and cherish


Didn't give her all my love, I guess now I got my payback
In hindsight, I understand that I did not love her with everything I had, and now it's coming back to bite me


Now I'm in the club thinking all about my baby
Even in social situations, I can't help but think about her and what could've been


Hey, she was so easy to love
Reflecting back, I recognize that loving her was effortless and natural


But wait, I guess that love wasn't enough
Unfortunately, the love we shared wasn't sufficient to keep our relationship afloat


And now I'm missing, wishing she'd pick up the phone
I'm desperately seeking closure or some form of communication from her


But she made the decision that she wanted to move on
For her own reasons, she has chosen to leave our relationship behind and move on


If you ever loved somebody put your hands up
As a rhetorical question, the artist is asking those who have loved and lost to acknowledge themselves


And now they're gone and you're wishing you could give them everything
After they have left, you might have the urge to do everything in your power to win them back

TRANSLATION of the Egyptian part :BY SOUHIR from TUNISIA 

forgot our love story,go away
my love for you is over,It's not yours anymore,
you just say words,and lie
don't talk about our love 
don't cry please
weakness is a kind of insult.
I am already suffering.(refrain)

I have been always nice to people especially you
why did you hurt me and waste my life in vain ? 
I have never cheated on you 
or hurt you even by words.
I have been yours for years 
you were the apple of my eyes:



forgot our love story,go away
my love for you is over,It's not yours anymore,
you just say words,and lie
don't talk about our love 
don't cry please
weakness is a kind of insult.
I am already suffering.(refrain)

I can not believe that we still have war between countries. All of these people should just watch this video to see how awesome the world would be if we are loving each other no matter from were we are or wich language we all are speaking. Spread love to the world !
