Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Say you’re gonna stand by me
'Cause you my girl, and everything
The one and only love, I’ll ever need
It’s not that easy to say
I want you back in my life
I wanna be with my wife again
Reunited, getting back together because
We’re united
What were we thinking of
Ain’t nothing better than us
When it’s me and you reunited
When you walked out of my life
Everything fell apart
But I wanna get it right
Because I’m gonna always love you boy
And I need you boy
Tell me we’ll fall in love again
Reunited, back to the business of love
Reunited, getting back together because
We’re united
What were we thinking of
Ain’t nothing better than us
When it’s me and you reunited
Because I’m gonna always love you boy
And I need you boy
Tell me we’ll fall in love again
Again
We're reunited, baby, back to the business of love

Reunited, back to the business of love
Reunited, getting back together because

In "Reunited," Toni Braxton and Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds express their longing to reunite with their significant other. The song's lyrics suggest that the couple had separated but they have realized the importance of their love for each other and want to reconcile.
The song starts by pleading with the lover to stand by the person and say they will return because Braxton and Edmonds need and love the person. They acknowledge that it is difficult to admit that they want their lover back in their life, but they want to be reunited with them because they are the only love they will ever need. The chorus of the song emphasizes that getting back together with their significant other is the best thing for them because they are united and nothing is better than being together.
The second verse is about redemption; Edmonds mentions how when the lover walked out of their life, everything fell apart. They want to make things right for the relationship to work because they still love the person and need them to know that they want to fall in love again. The song repeats the chorus twice more, ultimately ending on the note that the two lovers are reunited and back to the business of love.
