You thought you had me, didn’t you?
When you lied to my face, I could see the truth
Every step with the way I knew
How you fooled me, boo
[Pre-Chorus]
Guess you didn’t know …
Didn’t know what I wanted
I’ll admit that
Still don’t know what I wanted
I’ll be honest, I’m not ready to let you go
I walk down memory lane late at night
I end up …
[Chorus: Pat Monahan]
When I ride by myself
I don’t ever get no help
But when I roll up with her
Everybody calls me sir
No matter how long I stay
They never ever know my …
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
All I wanna do when I wake up in the morning is see your eyes
Rosanna, Rosanna
I never thought that a girl like you could ever care for me
Rosanna
[Verse 2]
All …
Cheese (scorching)
Ainna, ainna, ainna
Ainna, Ainna, Ainna
Ainna (ainna)
Ainna (ainna)
Ainna, (ainna)

We be wit da shits, ainna
Bout big bro and bout that bread

[Verse 1]
Know I’ve done wrong
I left your heart torn
Is that what devils do? 1
Took you so low
Where only fools go
I shook the angel in you 2
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I’m rising from the ground
Rising up to you
Filled with all the strength I found
There’s nothing I can’t do! 3
[Chorus]
I need to know now, know now
Can you love me again?
I need to know now, know now
Can you love me again?
I need to know now, know now
Can you love me again?
I need to know now, know now
Can you love me again?
Can you love me again? 4
[Verse 2]
It’s unforgivable
I stole and burnt your soul
Is that what demons do? 5
They rule the worst of me
Destroy everything
They bring down angels like you 6
[Pre-Chorus + Chorus]
Bridge]
I told you once again
Do this again, do this again oh lord
I told you once again
Do this again, do this again oh no 7
[Chorus]
0John Newman starts by showing the state of his mind, that of one torn by anguish to a perceived wrong doing, such that he asks if he could be the devil himself.
He sings that this girl was so good but through his actions he pushed her through so much hurt that it caused her to change.
John shows here that even at her lowest, she is still better than him and she seems to be helping him up. At this point he has cast away his evil tendencies enough for him to consider himself worthy of her love again.
He is asking if there is still some redemption for him and if she can accept his hand once again. He seems ready to anything and everything that she will ask to get back in her good graces.
John considers himself to be beyond redemption because of the anguish he caused her, his actions by reflection, make him think of himself as a demon as it is hard to imagine how another human being can hurt another so bad.
John believes that he is possessed by these demons, which cause him to act in ways that he otherwise wouldn’t. He could have cheated on her, abused her, lied to her or other such actions that can break a relationship.
John’s lamentations are further noted in these lines as he begs the good lord to let him be loved again by his angel. This shows his deep remorse of whatever he had done.
