Hey guys!
I can't believe this is my first Bruno Mars cover on Dtube! Bruno Mars is one of those artists that is just oozing with talent and is able to hit on both nostalgia and modern pop at the same time. He somehow finds a comfortable level of 90's RnB inspiration, hip hop, and pop and mixes it all together.
He offers such a raw and robust vocal performance for this song - I had to cover it for you guys. This song seemed like it required a bit more depth and so I decided to do a piano cover.
Here are the lyrics:
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 ooh hoo hoo
Mm, too young, too dumb to realize
That I should have bought you flowers
And held your hand
Should have 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 never, never get to clean up the mess I made, oh
And it haunts me every time I close my eyes
It all just sounds like ooh, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Mm, too young, too dumb to realize
That I should have bought you flowers
And held your hand
Should have 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 loved to dance
Do all the things I should have done
When I was your man
Do all the things I should have done
When I was your man
I hope you guys enjoy my cover of "When I was your Man" by Bruno Mars.
Stay Steemy!
