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
