For the Record Songtext
von Mariah Carey

Oh, oh-oh, oh (Oh)
Oh, oh-oh, oh (Baby, baby, baby)
Oh, oh-oh, oh (My)
Oh, oh-oh, oh (Hey)

For the record, you oughta know
You wasn′t thinking when you let me go
But whatever, that's how it goes
Win some, you lose some
And others you hold in your heart
Why it gets so hard, tears you all apart
Even though you try to let go, no, no, no
Suddenly you′re here, and it's all surreal
And I don't know what the deal


′Cause when I′m looking in your eyes
Feels like the first time
Give me one good reason why
We can't just press rewind
I don′t wanna spend my life
Thinking what it could've been like
If we had another try (One time)
Like back in the day, that look on your face
Feels like the first time

Them other regularities, they can′t compete with MC
The whole entire world can tell
That you love yourself some me
People see you now, asking all about me
And how they always thought we were so perfect together
Let's rewrite the end, start over again
And it′s gon' go better now

'Cause when I′m looking in your eyes
Feels like the first time
Give me one good reason why
We can′t just press rewind
I don't wanna spend my life
Thinking what it could′ve been like
If we had another try (One time)
Like back in the day, that look on your face
Feels like the first time


For the record (For the record)
You'll always be a part of me, no matter what you do
And for the record (For the record)
Can′t nobody say I didn't give my all to you
And for the record (For the record)
I told you underneath the stars that you belong to me
And for the record (For the record)
It′s obvious that we just can't get let go of us, honey

'Cause when I′m looking in your eyes
Feels like the first time
Give me one good reason why (Give me one good reason)
We can′t just press rewind (Why can't we just press rewind?)
I don′t wanna spend my life (Don't wanna spend my life)
Thinking what it could′ve been like
If we had another try (We just need another try, one time)
Like back in the day, that look on your face (Yeah, I love you, boy)
Feels like the first time (Oh)

'Cause when I′m looking in your eyes
Feels like the first time
Give me one good reason why
We can't just press rewind
I don't wanna spend my life
Thinking what it could′ve been like
If we had another try (One time)
Like back in the day, that look on your face
Feels like the first time

For the record, baby
Now you know, now you know
