A Better Man testo

Del Amitri

Testo

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
