When I Was Your Man

Bruno Mars

Intro : 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 ooh, ooh, oooh, oooh Mmm too young, too dumb to realize That I should've bought you flowers and held your hand Shoulda 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 My pride, my ego, my needs and my selfish ways Caused a 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 that haunts me every time I close my eyes It all just sounds like ooh, ooh, oooh, oooh Mmm too young, too dumb to realize That I should've bought you flowers and held your hand Shoulda 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 Although it hurts I'll be the first to say that I was wrong 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 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

La chanson évoque le regret d'un homme qui réalise trop tard les erreurs qu'il a commises dans sa relation. Il se remémore des moments précieux qu'il n'a pas su apprécier, comme offrir des fleurs ou passer du temps avec sa compagne. À présent, il la voit danser avec un autre homme, ce qui lui rappelle à quel point il aurait dû être plus attentif et présent. Malgré la douleur de cette perte, il exprime le souhait sincère qu'elle soit heureuse avec quelqu'un d'autre, espérant que cet homme prendra soin d'elle comme il n'a pas su le faire. Le contexte pourrait être celui d'une rupture amoureuse où l'on prend pleinement conscience de sa négligence et de l'importance des petits gestes dans une relation. Cela souligne combien il est important d'exprimer son affection et d'être attentif aux besoins de l'autre, surtout quand l'occasion se présente.
