Bye Bye
Reminisce Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Reminisce in the building
I sound soft on this one
The love birds
Got my man
Joel stinger up on them keys

Kinda of hard to say this
But is time to put away my do's don’t and maybes
And make some babies
Know I've been doing you wrong for so long
That's why I found time to write you this love song
And I hope the pains you feel wouldn’t hurt for too long
I love you but a brother gotta stay strong
Just to make things work
I though you'd understand
All the things I did was part of me
Tryna be a man
Beautiful black princess
Damn I miss your kisses
And how we made love
And tore the sheets into pieces
Wow how sweet love was
When I was with you
Bitter memories ever since I couldn’t reach you
It takes my mind back to the days the story started
A very first kiss and how you stayеd whole hearted
I still lovе you place nothing above you
Come on girl would you come and take me out this curfew
Relationships suck but not this much
Am I selfish for caring for myself too much
Yes now's the time for me to make things right
And I'd never let you out of my life

Bye bye bye bye
Girl why you tell me bye bye
Bye bye bye bye
Girl why you tell me bye bye
Bye bye bye bye
Girl why you tell me bye bye
Bye bye bye bye so

Now you not by my side you no longer with me
And I know you had to carry on without or with me
You shoulda stayed with me
Maami why you leave me
Back in them days I was Bobby you was Whitney
I tried to do right but my wrongs stuck in me
I care but I don’t give a fuck's stuck in me
Sometimes I wonder why
I had to let you go and just make our love die
Even though you gave me love I still made you cry
Now its your turn to wipe tears from my eye
Truth ran out it walked straight outta the door
Minutes after you screaming you don’t want me no more
And I hope you get to read my letters
If I ever have you again I'd love you better
In between time baby ama chase my cheddas
You know why cause money changes niggas like weather

Bye bye bye bye
Girl why you tell me bye bye
Bye bye bye bye
Girl why you tell me bye bye
Bye bye bye bye
Girl why you tell me bye bye
Bye bye bye bye

Why you tell me
Why do you wana leave me girl
Baby I need you so much
Baby why you wanna leave me
Woahhhhh




You know what
I still love you
