In 1997, beauty changed my life
Who wouldve known that she would be my future wife
Or the mother of a child so beautiful
What I had in love I lacked in self-control
See, I had to have them all to be satisfied
And on an average night, Id take four or five
But the measure of a man aint how many you can fuck
Its how you live your life so you can keep her trust
[chorus]
Men always regret getting over cause you dont know what you do
So, youre better off loving her from the start
Even if yourre not sure if shes loving you
Men always regret getting over shell hide her pain in her smile
And be in your bed sleeping with another man
While youre on the phone askin bout your child
Remarkable, incredible, confrontational, yet irreplaceable
She wouldnt cook or clean, so I let her go (oh no no)
But shes got the kind of love that you cant let go
But still I loved her unconditionally
I wish she hadve told me that she didnt love me
Could have been better off on my own (yes, I would)
But then I never would have wrote this song
See, my girl is the kind that walks around with a smile
Kissin and huggin me like she dont even care, oh yeah
So one day, I come home
Smilin, ready to say I love you
But then I walked upstairs
And all your things were gone like you were never there
Men always regret getting over cause you dont know what you do
So youre better off loving her from the start
Even if you think she aint loving you
Men always regret getting over shell hide her pain in her smile
So, while youre in the bed with another man
I just wanna talk to my child
[nokio]
Still cant understand
Why you let me get away with what I did
I dont wanna hurt another girl
Knowin I was sleepin with another girl
While you were home sleepin in my bed
I really cant be mad if you turn around and do the same to me
Please, god, give me the strength
Men always regret getting over
cause one day shell leave
[chorus]
Men always regret getting over cause you dont know what you do
So, youre better off loving her from the start
Even if yourre not sure if shes loving you
Men always regret getting over shell hide her pain in her smile
And be in your bed sleeping with another man
While youre on the phone askin bout your child
