Hello, hello it's me again

You're still not home

Cuz if you were, it's after 4 am

I wouldn't be here alone, see

God, give me the strength and the courage I need

What my heart lives for, have to let it be



But it's okay, I understand

(You've got to leave)

I don't cry no more baby, what for?

(You don't shed a tear for me)

See, I was blind but now I see

There's gotta be a better man for me

There's gotta be a better man for me



Hello, oh no not this again, I'll be counting down

Your bags are packed and they're at the door

I gotta get used to not having you around

God, give me the strength and the courage I need

To move forward with my life, have to let him be



But it's okay, I understand

(You've got to leave)

I don't cry no more baby, what for?

(You don't shed a tear for me)

See, I was blind but now I see

There's gotta be a better man for me

There's gotta be a better man for me



There's gotta be a better man

Ooh, God, hear me now

Cuz God, give me the strength and the courage I need

Cuz I know now, baby

There's gotta be a better man for me



You've got to leave

You don't shed a tear for me

See I was blind, but now I see

There's gotta be a better man for me

There's gotta be a better man for me



See I'm tired of your lying, and I'm tired of tryin'

(You've got to leave)

I don't cry no more baby, what for?

(You don't shed a tear for me)

See, I was blind, but now I see

There's gotta be a better man for me

Somewhere out there, baby

There's gotta be a better man for me

Gotta be a better man, oh yeah
