Mariah Carey – Standing O lyrics

Album: Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel

Oh oh oh ohhhhhhhh
oh oh oh ohhhhhhhh
oh oh oh ohhhhhhhh
oh oh oh ohhhhhhhh

Here's your standing O

Boy, you remind
me of a love that seemed so sublime.
Your kisses told me oh so many lies
shades on like I be stuntin' through the night

But I decided with the eyes
to keep the world from knowin' what's inside.
I didn't know oh oh oh oh-oh-oh
I was a show oh oh oh oh-oh-oh

And your words they had no meaning.
How didn't I forsee this?
Happiness and congrats.
Know that
I pretend I mean it

Chorus
So cheers, toast, bravo to you.
Cuz you're the man of the hour.
I'ma have to send you some flowers
Ohhhhhh
Cheers, toast, bravo to you.
The man of the hour.
You played the one that loved you the most
so here's your standing O
oh oh ohhhhhhhh oh
oh oh oh ohhhhhhhh oh
oh oh oh ohhhhhhhh oh
Boy so Heres your standing O
oh oh ohhhhhhhh oh
oh oh oh ohhhhhhhh oh
oh oh oh ohhhhhhhh oh
Gave you my heart and all you did was pound on it (so heres your standing O)

Here's your standing ovation.
Doctor, I was too patient.
Even when you wasn't enough,
I'm the one that taught you how to love.
And boy I gave you all of me,
parts of affection you couldn't see.
As you embrace her in your arms give her "my all"
give her more than you gave to me.

When you had nothing I gave.
When you were weak I made you brave.
You went and leave me with the scars on my heart,
it's funny how ya'll forget it sll.

Chorus
So cheers, toast, bravo to you.
Cuz you're the man of the hour.
I'ma have to send you some flowers
Whooooooa
Cheers, toast, bravo to you.
The man of the hour.
You played the one that loved you the most
so here's your standing O
oh oh ohhhhhhhh oh
oh oh oh ohhhhhhhh oh
oh oh oh ohhhhhhhh oh
Boy so Heres your standing O
oh oh ohhhhhhhh oh
oh oh oh ohhhhhhhh oh
oh oh oh ohhhhhhhh oh
Gave you my heart and all you did was pound on it (so heres your standing O)

Round of applause to the
biggest fool in the world
give 'em all that you got
and they still ride out into the sunset with the next girl.

Round of applause to the
biggest fool in the world
give 'em all that you got
and they still ride out into the sunset with the next girl.

Standing Ovation
congradulation
Damn I was down for it
gave you my heart and all you did was pound on it.
Standing Ovation

Damn I was down for it
gave you my heart and all you did was pound on it.

All you did was pound on it,
gave you my heart
and all you did was pound on it
all you did was pound on it
