Don’t Forget About Us / We Belong Together (Live from the American Music Awards) lyrics

[Part I: Don't Forget About Us]

[Intro]
(Don't forget about us) Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
No baby, no baby, no baby, no
(Don't forget about us) Don't baby, don't baby, don't let it go
My baby boy (Y'all know what this is)

[Part II: We Belong Together]

[Verse 1]
I didn't mean it when I said I didn't love you so
I should have held on tight, I never should have let you go
I didn't know nothing, I was stupid, I was foolish
I was lying to myself
I couldn't have fathomed I would ever be without your love
Never imagined I'd be sitting here beside myself
'Cause I didn't know you, 'cause I didn't know me, but I thought I knew everything
I ever felt

[Pre-Chorus]
The feeling that I'm feeling, now that I don't hear your voice
Or have your touch and kiss your lips, 'causе I don't have a choice
Oh, what I wouldn't give to havе you lying by my side
Right here, 'cause baby
[Chorus]
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
Come back, baby, please, 'cause
We belong together
Who else am I gonna lean on when times get rough?
And who's gonna talk to me on the phone 'til the sun comes up?
Who's gonna take your place? There ain't nobody better
Oh, baby, baby, we belong together

[Verse 2]
I can't sleep at night when you're on my mind
Bobby Womack's on the radio
Singing to me, "If you think you're lonely now"
Wait a minute this is too deep (Too deep), too deep
So I turn the dial, tryin' to catch a break
And then I hear Babyface, "I only think of you"
It's breakin' my heart
I'm tryin' to keep it together, but I'm falling apart

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm feeling all out of my element, throwing things, cryin', tryin'
To figure out where the hell I went wrong
The pain reflected in this song ain't even half of what I'm feeling inside
I need you, need you back in my life, baby
[Chorus]
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
Come back, baby, please, 'cause
We belong together
Who else am I gonna lean on when times get rough?
And who's gonna talk to me on the phone 'til the sun comes up?
Who's gonna take your place? There ain't nobody better
Oh, baby, baby, we belong together

[Outro]
When you left I lost a part of me
It's still so hard to believe
Come back, baby, please, 'cause
We belong together
Who else am I gonna lean on when times get rough?
And who's gonna talk to me on the phone 'til the sun comes up?
Who's gonna take your place? There ain't nobody better
Oh, baby, baby, we belong together

[Spoken Outro]
Love you
