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
But 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 was always on your terms
I waited on every careless word
Hoping they might turn sweet again
Like it was in the beginning
But your jealousy
Oh, I can hear it now
Talking down to me
Like I'd always be around
Push my love away
Like it was some kind of loaded gun
Oh, 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
But I just miss you
And I just wish you were a better man
A better man
I hold onto this pride because these days
It's all I have
And I gave to you my best
And we both know you can't say that
I wish you were a better man
I wonder what we would've become
If you were a better man
We might still be in love
If you were a better man
You would've been the one
If you were a better man
Yeah, yeah
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
But I just miss you
And I just wish you were a better man
A better man
(Sometimes, in the middle of the night)
(I can feel you again) we might still be in love if you were a better man
(But I just miss you)
(And I just wish you were a better man) yeah, yeah
I know why we had to say goodbye
Like the back of my hand
But I just miss you
And I just wish you were a better man
A better man
We might still be in love
If you were a better man
You would've been the one
If you were a better man
