Better Man Lyrics


James Newman Better Man

[Verse 1]
It's gone, 3AM
I'm still out with my friends
I know it's not right
Yeah, I know I'm a mess
When you call me
And I don't answer
You wake up alone
And I'm not in the bed
And you can't believe
That I've done this again
When I promised
Last time was the last time
So we keep going around
In the same argument
You say I'm not the man
That you feel if love with
And I know that
Yeah, I'm trying to go back
And I promise you
We'll be alright in the end
I'm going to change
I can't lose you again
And you know that
I'm not going to let this go I swear
[Chorus]
I'm trying to be a better man
Hoping that you understand
I'm going to get my shit together
Ain't going to be like this forever
You deserve the world, you do
And I would move the earth for you
You're as close as I can get to heaven
And baby we belong together
So I'll do all I can
To be a better man (oh oh)
To be a better man (ohhh)
To be a better man (oh oh)
So I'll do all I can

[Verse 2]
Now you stood in the dark
With the keys to your car
And you say that it's over
And I broke your heart
For the last time
For the last time
But just give me a moment
It might be my last
Chance to remind you
Of all that we had
All the good times
'Cause we had some good times
You were my first love
You're still my best friend
Know I made some mistakes
I won't make them again
That's a promise
I'm not going to let this go I swear
[Chorus]
I'm trying to be a better man
Hoping that you understand
I'm going to get my shit together
Ain't going to be like this forever
'Cause you deserve the world, you do
And I would move the earth for you
You're as close as I can get to heaven
And baby we belong together
So I'll do all I can
To be a better man (oh oh)
To be a better man, baby (ohhh)
To be a better man, better man, better man, baby (oh oh)
So I'll do all I can

[Outro]
Give me a moment
That's all I ask
Chance to remind you
Of all that we had
All the good times
Remember the good times
