A Better Man

What do you say when it's over?
 I don't know if I should say anything at all
 One day we're rollin' in the clover
 Next thing you know we take the fall
 Still, I think about the years since I first met you
 And the way it might have been without you here
 And I don't know if words from me can still upset you
 But I've just gotta make this memory stand clear
 I know I'm leavin' here a better man
 For knowin' you this way
 Things I couldn't do before, now I think I can
 And I'm leavin' here a better man
 ♪
 I guess I always knew I couldn't hold you
 But I'd never be the one to set you free
 Just like some old nursery rhyme your mama told you
 You still believe in some old "meant to be"
 Still, I'm leavin' here a better man
 For knowin' you this way
 Things I couldn't do before now I think I can
 And I'm leavin' here a better man
 Yes, I'm leavin' here a better man
 For knowin' you this way
 Things I couldn't do before now I know I can
 And I'm leavin' here a better man
 (Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
 Yes, I'm leavin' here a better man
