Mariah Carey – We Belong Together

“We Belong Together” – Single by Mariah Carey from the album The Emancipation of Mimi, released on March 15, 2005.

“We Belong Together” was written by Carey, Jermaine Dupri, Manuel Seal, and Johntá Austin, and produced by the former three. Since the song interpolates lyrics from Bobby Womack’s “If You Think You’re Lonely Now” (1981) and the Deele’s “Two Occasions” (1987), the songwriters of those respective songs are credited.

The song’s music video was filmed as a two-part story with “It’s Like That”, which featured Carey at her bachelorette party. The video for “We Belong Together” is a continuation, focusing on Carey’s wedding to an powerful older man and ending with the singer eloping with her younger ex-lover (played by actor Wentworth Miller of the TV show Prison Break).

This won 2005 Grammys for Best R&B Song and Best Female R&B Vocal Performance. Carey performed this on the show in 2006.

The wedding dress that Mariah wears in the video is the same one in which she got married to Tommy Mottola in 1993. Mottola and Carey divorced in 1998, but she held onto the wedding dress, and when the video’s director needed a dress, she volunteered the use of it.

Lyrics/Versuri:
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
Guess I didn’t know you
Guess I didn’t know me
But I thought I knew everything
I never felt
The feeling that I’m feeling
Now that I don’t hear your voice
Or have your touch and kiss your lips
‘Cause I don’t have a choice
Oh what I wouldn’t give to have you lying by my side
Right here,’cause babyWhen 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
Who’s gonna talk to me on the phone till the sun comes up
Who’s gonna take your place
There ain’t nobody better
Oh baby baby
We belong together
I can’t sleep at night
When you are 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)
I gotta change the station
So I turn the dial tryin’ to catch a break
And then I hear Babyface
“I only think of you”
And its’ breakin’ my heart
I’m tryin’ to keep it together
But I’m falling apartI’m feeling all out of my element
Throwing things, crying 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 babyWhen 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
Who’s gonna talk to me on the phone till the sun comes up
Who’s gonna take your place
There ain’t nobody better
Oh baby baby
We belong togetherWhen you left I lost a part of me
It’s still so hard to believe
Come back, baby, please,’cause
We belong together
Who am I gonna lean on when times get rough
Who’s gonna talk to me till the sun comes up
Who’s gonna take your place
There ain’t nobody better
Oh baby baby
We belong together
