Testo
Oooo oooo oooo
Oooo oooo ummm
She’s staring at me, I’m sitting wondering what she’s thinking
Ummm Nobody’s talking, cause’ talking just turns into screaming (Oooo)
And now yes I’m yelling over her, she yelling over me,
all that that means is neither of us are listening,
and what’s even worse, that we don’t even remember why we’re fighting
It’s all for nothing (fighting for)
nothing, (crying for)
nothing, (oohh)
When we won’t let it go for nothing, (come back for)
nothing,
it should be nothing
to a love like what we got oh baby
I know sometimes it’s gonna rain,
But baby can we make up now
cause’ I can’t sleep through the pain (can’t sleep through the pain)
girl I don’t want to go to bed, mad at you
and I don’t want you to go to bed, mad at me
no I don’t want to go to bed mad at you
and I don’t want you to go to bed, mad at me (oh noo)
Umm
and it gets me upset girl when you’re constantly accusing
(asking questions like you already know)
hey we’re fighting this war when both of us are losing
(this ain’t the way that love is supposed to go, what happened to working it out?)
We fall into this place where you ain’t backing down, and I ain’t backing down,
so what the hell do we do now?
It’s all for nothing (fighting for)
nothing, (crying for)
nothing… (oohh)
When we won’t let it go for nothing,
nothing,
it should be nothing
to a love like what we got oh baby
I know sometimes it’s gonna rain,
But baby can we make up now
cause’ I can’t sleep through the pain (can’t sleep through the pain)
girl I don’t want to go to bed mad at you
and I don’t want you to go to bed, mad at me
no I don’t want to go to bed mad at you
and I don’t want you to go to bed, mad at me (oh noo)
Oh baby this love ain’t gone be perfect, (perfect perfect oh no)
And just how good it’s gonna be
We can fuss and we can fight long as everything is alright between us before we go to sleep…
Baby we’re gonna be…
Yah…. Baby….
ohhhh….ohhhh
I know sometimes it’s gonna rain,
But baby can we make up now
cause’ I can’t sleep through the pain (can’t sleep through the pain)
girl I don’t want to go to bed mad at you
and I don’t want you to go to bed, mad at me
no I don’t want to go to bed mad at you
and I don’t want you to go to bed, mad at me (oh noo, nooo, noo)
Oooo oooo ummm

Curiosità
Nel 2008 il cantante statunitense Shaffer Chimere Smith (Ne-Yo), compose il brano "Irreplaceable" dedicato alla seducente cantante - attrice Beyoncè, che rimase in vetta alla Billboard Hot 100 per qualche settimana. In seguito compose il suo terzo album, ovvero "Year of the Gentleman", autodefinendosi un "esempio da seguire" per il perfetto gentiluomo; uomo dalle maniere cortesi e allo stesso tempo accattivanti, sempre calmo e con un fascino che lascia senza fiato. L'album vende 250,000 copie e riesce a toccare il secondo posto della Billboard 200, ottenendo così il tanto desiderato disco di platino. Inoltre l'album viene nominato ai Grammy Award come "miglior album R&B" e anche "miglior album dell' anno". Anche alcuni singoli estratti da quest' album ricevono nomine importanti, se vorremmo citarne qualcuno nomineremmo Closer e Miss Independent.
Giudizio finale
La canzone si apre dopo una sgommata di macchina sfortunatamente in ritardo. Il momento di "tristezza" viene accompagnato a braccetto dal suono malinconico del piano sostenuto da stacchi di batteria. L' arrangiamento nel complesso è molto orecchiabile, anche se non è molto originale; quel R&B che si sente quasi sempre mi ricorda le canzoni di Chris Brown, cantante che divide la piazza con Ne-Yo. Sembra che il black&white vada di moda in questi tempi, lo usa anche lo statunitense che a parere mio ha preso una crepa col video che non regala le emozioni di cui la gente ha bisogno in questo momento: litigio con la fidanzata, il salvataggio di un bimbo che gli è costato la vita e il sapere che quel litigio rimarrà nel tempo senza un lieto fine, sono la combinazione perfetta per metterci un attimo in depressione.
