Let's face the truth, the deed is done Look at me now babe,
and say I'm still the one Just who are we trying to defend
A burnt-out building should be condemned Baby, I don't even
know you anymore, do I? Don't look forlorn, don't look
so sad Deep down you know I was always bad You say, "I
don't know even know you anymore (baby) I don't even
know if I'm sure what I want" Maybe a better man could
understand Maybe a better man could be your friend Maybe a
better man who would hold you Like I'll never really hold
you Maybe he could love you so that baby, I may be a better man
Yes I know, things have changed Once we were lovers, now we
ain't even friends And maybe love, don't ask me why,
Is something for which I ain't qualified You say, "I
can't even see the boy you were (baby) And I don't
think it's good to even be here anymore" Maybe a better man
could understand Maybe a better man could be your friend Maybe a
better man could hold you like I'll never really hold you
Maybe he could love you so that baby, I may be a better man
Maybe a better man could be your friend Maybe a better man could
understand Maybe a better man wouldn't leave you
Wouldn't hurt you and deceive you Wouldn't leave you
to believe that someday he may be a better man Would be your
friend And understand so that you'd never need again A
better man A better man A better man
