Damn
Tanya Stephens Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wooh wooh
Ayy ayy

verse 1
Came to your wedding uninvited
Walk to da church and sat down inside
I wanted to scream your name
Let everybody see my pain
When you said I do I died
And it was time for you to kiss the bride
Through tears I saw you lift her veil
You kissed her and my world turned pale
I thought I was apart of your life
But they pronounced you man and wife
Saw the emotion in your eyes
And in da church I started to cry

chorus
Damn you
And your wedding bells
Damn you
Have me under your spell
Damn you
You gonna burn in hell
And if its that wat you want
I guess you got wat you want boy

damn you
And your bedroom eyes
Damn you
And your believable lies
Damn you
You know your gonna fry
And if its that wat you want
I guess you got wat you want boy

rip:
If you believe in karma then you know
What you do gonna come around to you
And the hurt that you dish today
Isn't free you gatta pay

2nd verse
So I got up and started running blindly
Had to get that painful scene behind me
The wind howling in my ears
Seem to be laughing at my river of tears
I didn't wait for you to walk my way
Or stick around until she through the bouquet
I couldnt trust my self to just sit by
And not flood the church with the tears I cried
Last night I was in your arms
You held me and kept me warm
Can't help feeling left behind
As she walks off with what you said was mine!

chorus
Damn you
And your wedding bells
Damn you
Have me under your spell
Damn you
You gonna burn in hell
And if its that wat you want
I guess you got wat you want boy

damn you
And your bedroom eyes
Damn you
And your believable lies
Damn you
You know your gonna fry
And if its that wat you want
I guess you got wat you want boy

hook
You see that lame up thing a nah you that
Hurt me yuh mad, you'll never do that
Now me know for a fact say a nah true that
See it dey you beetray me, you lickle judas

rip
If you believe in karma then you know
What you do gonna come around to you
And the hurt that you dish today
Isn't free you gatta pay

hook
Father ma know you see him committ the autrocity
And vengeance is yours all me need is a little reciprocity
Nothing major, just equal pain




You know wah me a feel already father
Mek him feel the same
