Bobby Brown pays tribute to former wife Whitney Houston in new song

London, May 18 (ANI): Whitney Houston's ex-husband Bobby Brown seemingly admits some kind of wrong doing, singing how he "messed up pretty bad" through his new song titled 'Don't Let Me Die', which is a tribute to his former wife.

Debuting the track on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno, the 43-year-old appeared emotional as he sang through the lyrics, all whilst wearing a pair of sunglasses onstage, the Daily Mail reported.

"I guess I messed up pretty bad ... I didn't know who you were ... I didn't know what we had. Now I'm stuck living in the past ...trying to get the pieces back ... but I guess now you're gone," he sings in the track.

"I didn't realize that every breath I took was from you ... You were my air," the song continues.

The new track will be featured on Brown's new album 'The Masterpiece', which will be released on June 5.

It is the first album he has recorded since his 1997 LP 'Forever'.

It comes after Brown hit back at claims last month that he was responsible for introducing his former wife to the drugs, which played a part in her untimely death. (ANI)
