Rear View Mirror Lyrics

Uh Yeah
A Keys
Rear View
Uh Oh Uh Oh
Uh Oh Uh Oh
AK 2000
Oh Uh Oh

It happened quickly
All of a sudden I was
caught up with another man
who wanted
to be closer
But now
I know better and I'm
hoping we can
start again


I know
that does not take away what I have done
So, let me show you how deep my love goes for you
Cause you live and learn, that's how you find out who is true
And I found out that you were the one

[Hook]
I was deceived
Baby please forgive me
Don't want what we had to change
It's easier for us to get further
Don't look in the rear view mirror

[Verse 2]
Now that we are
Back again together
I want to show you
How I mean forever
I'll do my best to shower
You with love and attention
Don't ever have to mention
a song after it ends

I know
that does not take away what I have done
So, let me show you how deep my love goes for you
Cause you live and learn, that's how you find out who is true
And I found out that you were the one

[Hook]
I was deceived
Baby please forgive me
Don't want what we had to change
It's easier for us to get further
Don't look in the rear view mirror

[Bridge]
I can't change what I have done before
But now I know,
that your love means so much more
Than anything
that had ever come my way
Keep your eyes on what we have today

I was deceived
Baby please forgive me
Don't want what we had to change
It's easier for us to get further
Don't look in the rear view mirror

I was deceived
Baby please forgive me
Don't want what we had to change
It's easier for us to get further
Don't look in the rear view mirror

I was deceived
Baby please forgive me
Don't want what we had to change
It's easier for us to get further
Don't look in the rear view mirror

I was deceived
Baby please forgive me
Don't want what we had to change

[Bridge 2]
If we can get past the past
It happened so fast (so fast)
If we don't look back (look back)
in the rear view mirror

I was deceived
Baby please forgive me
Don't know what we had to change
It's easier for us to get further
Don't look in the rear view mirror

Cover art for Rear View Mirror lyrics by Alicia Keys

It's basically a song about a girl who fell under the sway of temptation from another man, but she realizes her mistake and successfully gets back with the original guy. She now plans to work extra hard to keep the relationship intact, by having him not dwell in the past or look in the rear view mirror at the things they did before.
