Blige, Mary J - Whole Damn Year Lyrics
Tryna find a way to explain this
Why you can't touch me tonight?
I can feel you're getting impatient
But I really can't let you inside
Bad, how deep the pain is
And yes I'm good on the surface
But I'm a mess, I'm a mess underneath
See winter took most of my heart
And Spring punched right in the stomach
Summer came looking for blood
And by autumn, I was left with nothing
It took a whole damn year to repair my body
It took a whole damn year
It took a whole damn year to repair my body
Gon' take a long long year for me to trust somebody
Gon' take long long year
Gon' take a long long year for me to touch somebody
It's been a bad five years
Not tryna do this on purpose
Boy I really wish I could
Don't act like you never heard this
I know you haven't misunderstood
Where the others just wouldn't respect me
Don't tell me you use well
I thought we were heading for Heaven
But you're about to take me back to Hell
See winter took most of my heart
And Spring punched right in the stomach
Summer came looking for blood
And by autumn, I was left with nothing
It took a whole damn year to repair my body
It took a whole damn year
It took a whole damn year to repair my body
It's been about five years
Gon' take a long long year for me to trust somebody
Gon' take long long year
Gon' take a long long year for me to touch somebody
It's been a bad five years
It took a whole damn year to repair my body
It took a whole damn year
It took a whole damn year to repair my body
It's been about five years
Gon' take a long long year for me to trust somebody
Gon' take long long year
Gon' take a long long year for me to touch somebody
It's been a bad five years
Bad to the liver, bad to the bones
Bad to the liver, bad to the bones
Bad to the liver, bad to the bones
It's been a bad five years

I just want me back
Man I feel this
My husband grabbed me by my face just like that. He told me I was worthless, I wasnt ahit, and I ain't nothing. I got to get out this shit. So sad to be hated so much by someone you love
Thank you Mary!

This real heavy, holding on to that hurt & pain...♥️ Let it free...🕊
Stay Strong Queen
This is a great song it touch on everything
I know when it's a celebrity but they're not my peers....
I can relate to a lot of MJ's music. Been an emotional wreck but listening to Mary lifts me up. RT
😥😥😥😥
Mary J.Bliege I would give anything to see u perform, which it will never happen. Music is all tell the truth,love u Mary
The London sessions was her best album in years
This a jaam jam
& by autumn I was left with nothin 🎶🎵
I was a victim of domestic abuse until I finally stood up and said NO DAMN MORE!! This gets to me as Miss Mary J. Says it so well ,It took me a long time to be able to trust again Nobody could say it better Than Mary J. ✌❣
Mjb i love your music your an inspiration to many of us whom hurt from pain and loss. I struggle daily with self worth. Since being diagnosed with colon cancer, ive struggle so much more this year with staying strong. But if i quit now , i let everyone else and mainly my parents who hurt and dumped me to the state at age 5 , win over me.
This is song us damn too emotional
Don't change anything change you
I love her because she follow the change of the game
Good morning is my birthday hey what's Poppin? I'm doing whatever today all day all night later thank you very much bye-bye
Yes! She explains it perfectly.
" BAD 2 DA' BONE " !!!!
It's been awhile...but back.
this song right here gotta me threw twenty years bad times
I luv this
A mess underneath. Damn. Going through it right now. A nightmare in the daytime. This song is on repeat.
When you been hurt you can explain the pain like no other. I love Mary J she is strong like me. #sistersneedtosticktogether
Give me something I can feel,
Damn if MJB didn't answer 🎧
I never understood. ....is this song about a recovering sexual assault victim? It's very disturbing!
And her marriage broke up after this. I love Mary but i feel like she should be and should have been in therapy long ago if all her songs are the truth. .
I hate so many good women have to go thru the bullshxt before they find that who Wants to love them for the blessing they are. This songs gives great understanding. Mary #Salute
I feel this song so my man left for work one day and never came home after 10 years..
I felt them lyrics
Mary keyshacole can help you get over a bad relationship
This shit really happen to me narcissist is the worsts people to deal with
Been a bad 10 years...
Love this song 2019! Sangggg girl! Tell it
I CAME TO YOUR CONCERT LAST WEEK ..MILW
2019 and I’m still listening to this song ♥️
I’ve had to learn to stay away from the fray, it’s just not worth it. You got one time to diss me and I’m out. I can’t be bothered. Love my sis Mary j. Praying for sis to be so happy. ❤️❤️💕💕🌈🦄🦄🦋🦋🦋🦋🌹🌹🌹🐬🐬 peace and quiet da best
This song is a truth truthful song it took me five years to trust anybody
Go through it repair yourself,
Gone take a long, long yearS for me to TRUST somebody!! u kno who u are...
How am I just now hearing this song
Angel Cody this song been out. I love the words
It's been a bad five years, I can relate!
She wrote this shit for me. Mary is my soul sista, she felt my pain in this one.
2019???
I swear this my life!! Thank you Mary! I feel it to the core
Took a whole damn year
Lived this whole song, lyric after lyric , and it is true.... People, please be patient and kind about other's sensitivities. Everybody fights his/her own demons and battles inside.... Communicate, respect... For those in pain, don't ever forget that when you are alone , you always got yourself.
I have been a fan since she first came out and she still going strong true queen of soul.
It really didn't take me long to get over the person I was with cause if he was so cool to leave me then I know that he really didn't love me so as she said "I really can't let you inside" what I'm saying is I can't let anyone inside my heart cause I know they will break it so I just don't let it happen 💔😔💔
🔥🔥
Mary j. Songs are real life joy and pains..
This girl has a way with connecting with your pain. I cried (so much) off of this song. Mary feels like an old friend.
Underrated Song that don't get the spins it deserved! Mary Dear, you are a Beast & I have been a true fan since 92 when it all started! I wish you and Amy Whinehouse could have collaborated together, no one can sing about pain like you two great Women! 💯
This song still helping me get threw my situation 10 years later and still not over it
Lord this song hurts
Day 1💔😔
It did take a whole damn year!
The London Sessions album was not bad at all it just was a bad idea. It took Mary out of her element. But this joint was nice
Sean Jenkins it was her best album, at least she tried something different than those trap beats
🌺🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I like this song
2019?!?THIS SONG IS SUCH A CLASSIC ♥️‼️
I CAN RELATE TO THIS SONG. THANK GOD FOR HEALING ME 🙏🏿
No 1 fan since day 1... U the best Ms. Mary
Bad to the liver bad too the bone
Been there. Thank God, Delivered!!
JESUS help me!!!
It's been 20 years for me & I'm still healing. Mary helped me through the 90's & she's still helping me in 2019 💜
I can feel with Mary j Blige is going through in this song I can feel her pain she's bad to the bone
1st time I heard this, drag queen performed it. I was goin thru a break up at the time. That feeling in church when the preacher is speaking directly to you. Preach!
Listening in 2019!
My whole 5 years of marriage... smh.
This is me in 2019 struggling to leave a 7 years old relationship and I'm struggling to repair my mind it's hard,and I'm an attorney so no I'm not depending on him financially
GLAD to hear you are repairing yourself! ❤
Ladies, NEVER let a man put angry hands on you!!! Your better than that.
