Verse 1 :
In 1997 beauty changed my life,
Who would’ve known that she would be my future wife,
Or the mother of my child so beautiful
What I had in love I lacked in self-control,
See I had to have it all to be satisfied,
And on an average night I’d take 4 or 5
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
Chorus :
Men always regret gettin over cause you don’t know what she’ll do,
So you better off lovin her from the start, even if you’re not sure if she’s lovin you
Men always regret getting over she’ll hide her pain in her smile,
And be in your bed sleepin with another man,
While your on the phone askin bout your child
Verse 2 :
Remarkable, incredible, confrontational yet irreplaceable,
She wouldn’t cook or clean so I let her go,
But she’s got the kinda love that you can’t let go of,
But still I loved her unconditionally,
I wish she had told me that she didn’t love me,
Could’ve been better off on my own, but then I never would’ve wrote this song
Bridge :
See my girl is the kind of girl that walks around with her smile,
Kissin and huggin me like she don’t even care (oh yeah),
So one day I come home smiling ready to say I love you,
But then I walk upstairs and all your things were gone, like you were never there
Chorus
