In 1997, Beauty changed my life

Who would've 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, I'd take four or five

But the measure of a man ain't how many you can fuck

It's how you live your life so you can keep her trust





Men always regret getting over 'Cause you don't know what you do

So, you're better off loving her from the start

Even if your're not sure if she's loving you

Men always regret getting over She'll hide her pain in her smile

And be in your bed sleeping with another man

While you're on the phone askin' 'bout your child



Remarkable, incredible, confrontational, yet irreplaceable

She wouldn't cook or clean, so I let her go (Oh no no)

But she's got the kind of love that you can't let go

But still I loved her unconditionally

I wish she had've told me that she didn't 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 don't 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 don't know what you do

So you're better off loving her from the start

Even if you think she ain't loving you

Men always regret getting over She'll hide her pain in her smile

So, while you're in the bed with another man

I just wanna talk to my child





Still can't understand

Why you let me get away with what I did

I don't wanna hurt another girl

Knowin' I was sleepin' with another girl

While you were home sleepin' in my bed

I really can't 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 she'll leave





Men always regret getting over 'Cause you don't know what you do

So, you're better off loving her from the start

Even if your're not sure if she's loving you

Men always regret getting over She'll hide her pain in her smile

And be in your bed sleeping with another man

While you're on the phone askin' 'bout your child
