Losing You

I used to think that you were heaven sent
 Cause you appeared to be the perfect gentleman.
 You would open doors and make those daily calls
 Just to check and see if I needed anything at all.
 You used to be concerned
 Then things changed suddenly
 And when something went wrong
 You were never there to see.
 When I would tell you that I need comforting
 You would tell me you were kickin' it with "Ray and them."
 Losing you had to be
 The best thing that ever happened to me
 Even though I cried a little
 And I tried a little
 I learned what a good woman really needs
 Losing you had to be
 The best thing that ever happened to me
 Now that I'm over the pain
 I found love again.
 With a man that makes me so happy
 You would get mad at me over stupid things
 Now why would I be going through the pockets of your Jeans?
 I had suspicions and I felt something was goin' on
 You blame me for cheatin'
 But it was you doin' something wrong.
 They say that guilt will break ya down
 And lately you've been calling, but it's too late now.
 And I just wanna' thank you for leaving when you did
 'Cause I never woulda' fell in love with him.

 With a man that makes me so happy
 Thank you for the silly arguments
 You made me realize
 And the times you tried to kill my self-confidence
 Now I know the reasons why
 I appreciate you leaving me when you did
 Cause you made me understand
 Cause I never woulda' saw the great man that I found in him
