13. 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
When our friends talk about you
All it does is just tear me down
Cause my heart breaks a little
When I hear your name
It all just sounds like (oooooh)
Mmm too young too dumb to realize
Quando Eu Era Seu Homem
A mesma cama, mas parece
Um pouco maior agora
Nossa música no rádio
Mas não soa da mesma forma
Quando nossos amigos falam sobre você
Tudo que isso faz é me deixar pra baixo
Porque meu coração se quebra um pouco
Quando ouço seu nome
Tudo isso soa como (oooooh)
Mmm muito jovem, muito burro para
perceber

14. 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 is dancing
But she's dancing with another man
Que eu deveria ter te comprado flores
E segurado sua mão
Deveria ter dado a você todas as
minhas horas
Quando tive a chance
Te levar a todas as festas
Porque tudo que você queria fazer era
dançar
Agora minha querida está dançando
Mas ela está dançando com um outro
homem

15. My pride, my ego, my needs
and my selfish ways
Cause the good strong woman
like you to walk out my life
Now I'll never never get to
clean up the mess I made
Ooh and it haunts me every
time I close my eyes
It all just sounds like (oooooh)
Mmm too young too dumb to
realize
Meu orgulho, meu ego, minhas
necessidades e meus jeitos egoístas
Porque uma mulher forte e boa como
você sair da minha vida
Agora nunca, nunca conseguirei limpar
toda a bagunça que fiz
Ooh e isso me assombra toda vez que
fecho meus olhos
Tudo isso soa como (oooooh)
Mmm muito jovem, muito burro para
perceber

16. 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 is dancing
But she's dancing with another man
Que eu deveria ter te comprado flores
E segurado sua mão
Deveria ter dado a você todas as
minhas horas

dançar
Agora minha querida está dançando
Mas ela está dançando com um outro
homem

17. Although it hurts
I'll be the first to say
That I was wrong
Oh I know I'm probably much too
late
To trying apologize for my mistakes
But I just want you to know
Embora machuque
serei o primeiro a dizer
Que eu estava errado
Oooh sei que eu provavelmente
estou muito atrasado
Em tentar me desculpar por meus
erros
Mas só quero que você saiba

18. 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 love to dance
Do all the things I should've done
When I was your man
Do all the things I should've done
When I was your man
Espero que ele te compre flores
espero que ele segure sua mão
Te dê todas as horas dele
Quando ele tiver a chance
Leve você a todas as festas
Porque me lembro o quanto
Você amava dançar
Faça todas as coisas que eu deveria ter
feito
Quando eu era seu homem
Faça todas as coisas que eu deveria ter
feito
Quando eu era seu homem
