When I Was Your Man

Same bed, but it feels just a little bit bigger now
Our song on the radio, but it don't sound the same
Amigos falam de você a saudade me deixa tão mal
Meu coração se quebra, não consigo te esquecer
It all just sounds like, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh
Hmm, too young, too dumb to realize
That I should’ve bought you flowers and held your hand
Should’ve gave you all my hours when I had the chance
Take you to every party, ‘cause all you wanted to do was dance
Now my baby’s dancing, but she's dancing with another man
Meu orgulho, meu ego, meu jeito egoísta
Deixar uma mulher assim sair da minha vida
Now I never, never get to clean up the mess I made, oh
And it haunts me every time I close my eyes
It all just sounds like, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh
Fui tão tolo, tão tolo e nem me toquei
Que deveria ter te comprado flores, segurado a tua mão
Ter te dedicado todo meu tempo, quando tive seu coração
Take you to every party, ‘cause all you wanted to do was dance
Now my baby’s dancing, but she's dancing with another man
Apesar de doer serei o primeiro a dizer que eu errei
Oh, I know I'm probably much too late
To try and apologize for my mistakes
But I just want you to know
I hope he buys you flowers, I hope he holds your hand
Give you all his hours when he has the chance
Take you to every party, ‘cause I remember how much you loved to dance
Fazer tudo o que eu não fiz curtir você só pra mim
Do all the things I should’ve done when I was your man
