    Lyrics
    Maureen
    It's hard to explain
    I'm never going to see you again
    And you'll never meet my new friends
    Maureen, I miss you
    I just can't explain
    I'm never going to see you again
    I wish you could meet my new friends
    Walking along the subway listening to
    Loving you is easy acapella
    You were a souped-up car in that rent-a-go-kart town
    And I miss you, Maureen
    We're as thick as thieves
    Maureen maureen
    Remember when my mother said to me
    Sade don't you come home to late
    Till you're back I stay awake
    And maureen
    With the boys you could tell at a glance
    You'd say he looks good
    Let'd hope he can dance
    Wicky wacky party to the..
    Where are we going tonight
    And what will you be wearing
    Shone like a souped-up car in that rent-a-go-kart town
    And I miss you maureen, I miss you girl
    You were my best friend
    I'm never going to see you again, maureen
    And you'll never meet my new friends
    You really were a pearl in my world, maureen
    Maureen
    It's hard to explain
    You'll never call round to see me again
    You'll never meet my new friends
    Never meet my new friends
    Never meet my new friends
    Never meet my new friends

    I always think about my man Bobby that passed when we were kids. He was born handicapped with a heart condition but Bobby ran played and fought beside us like nothing was wrong. I remember I was getting ready for school one morning and my mother told me he passed. I tried to hold it in and be tough then my mother "it's ok to cry baby" I locked myself in the bathroom and lost it. I was only 11 and 38 now but I still think about my homeboy Bobby. Love you B see you when I get there.

      Wow, brother,the way you tell the story it seems like it could have been yesterday that your friend died. It's crazy because that's the way it actually feels sometimes when you think back on things like that, wishing that it wasn't real but knowing that it is. It's just really rough to have to go through.

      No. Actually, Maureen was a real high school buddy and best friend to Sade. But sadly, she passed away. Sade was totally devastated and she painfully wrote this beautiful and heartfelt song, really it’s like a last letter to her friend, out of deep grief. But Maureen’s family thought Sade was commercializing on the loss of their loved one. Not wanting to be misunderstood, Sade vowed to never perform the song in public. In so doing she has respectfully proven her point.

    Before July 20th, 2019, I use to love listening to this song and thinking about Sade's friend who passed but now I think of my own sister who passed away on that day. Each time I hear it, I think of how tragically her life was cut short and now she will never meet my new friends as I begin a new journey in my life and lifestyle. I will forever miss you Nikki. You are in our hearts forever. No one like you on this earth again girl.

      Maybe it’s their way of expressing how they feel but not about hate…maybe it sparks a sadness in them that words will never convey…or maybe we read far too much into a simple gesture. And please understand…I’m not screaming this at you or saying this with malice but being in their shoes for a second. Maybe this song is that sad for them, this is all they can do🤷🏻‍♀️

    And you'll never meet my new friends
    Maureen, I miss you
    I just can't explain
    I'm never going to see you again
    I wish you could meet my new friends
    Walking along the subway listening to
    Loving you is easy acapella
    You were a souped-up car in that rent-a-go-kart town
    And I miss you, Maureen
    We're as thick as thieves
    Maureen maureen
    Remember when my mother said to me
    Sade don't you come home to late
    Till you're back I stay awake
    And maureen
    With the boys you could tell at a glance
    You'd say he looks good
    Let'd hope he can dance
    Wicky wacky party to the..
    Where are we going tonight
    And what will you be wearing
    Shone like a souped-up car in that rent-a-go-kart town
    And I miss you maureen, I miss you girl
    You were my best friend
    I'm never going to see you again, maureen
    And you'll never meet my new friends
    You really were a pearl in my world, maureen
    Maureen
    It's hard to explain
    You'll never call round to see me again
