Love(love), gone(gone), gone with the wind

Since we're givin' up
Black Roses and everybody?(?)

Who knew our love would ever be
Called a memory
Who knew my home for happyness
Would soon be misery
Hate that we're so distant girl do you even miss me at all
I guess... life is no fare no no noo
Just listen to me we can't go on
Pretending to be, like we're so strong(strong)
Love(love), gone(gone), gone with the wind

Overall Meaning

The song "'Black Roses" by Trey Songz is a heart-wrenching version of a breakup song. The melancholic lyrics convey the pain of a love that is dying and coming to an end. The first verse talks about how the couple never anticipated that their love would result in a breakup. The lyrics, "Who knew that your heart had to cause our break?" imply that it was one person's fault. The singer also expresses his disbelief regarding how fate can be so unfair. The next verse speaks about how the couple can not continue pretending to be strong when, in reality, their love is fading away. The chorus "Black Roses for this dying love" conveys that nothing good remains in the relationship, and it is dead, and the only thing left is to mourn its loss.


The second verse of the song conveys the sadness and despair the singer feels after the breakup. The singer explains how it is challenging to come to terms with the fact that their once-happy home has turned into misery. The singer addresses his estranged lover and asks her if she misses him at all. The bridge of the song talks about the after-effects of the breakup on the singer's life. He describes how he is not sleeping, eating, or thinking correctly and how he is struggling to come to terms with the end of their relationship.
