I know I'm probably better off on my own Than lovin' a man who didn't know What he had when he had it And I see the permanent damage you did to me Never again, I just wish I could forget when it was magic I wish it wasn't four am, standing in the mirror Saying to myself, you know you had to do it I know The bravest thing I ever did was run Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can feel you again But I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man And I know why we had to say goodbye Like the back of my hand And I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man A better man I know I'm probably better off all alone Than needing a man who could change his mind at any given minute And it's always on your terms I'm hanging on every careless word Hoping it might turn sweet again Like it was in the beginning But your jealousy, I can hear it now You're talking down to me like I'll always be around You push my love away like it's some kind of loaded gun Boy, you never thought I'd run Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can feel you again But I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man And I know why we had to say goodbye Like the back of my hand And I just miss you, and I just wish you were a better man A better man Better man
