Hello, hello it's me again
  You're still not home
  Cuz if you were, it's after 4 am
  I wouldn't be here alone, see
  God, give me the strength and the courage I need
  What my heart lives for, have to let it be
    But it's okay, I understand
  (You've got to leave)
  I don't cry no more baby, what for?
  (You don't shed a tear for me)
  See, I was blind but now I see
  There's gotta be a better man for me
  There's gotta be a better man for me
    Hello, oh no not this again, I'll be counting down
  Your bags are packed and they're at the door
  I gotta get used to not having you around
  God, give me the strength and the courage I need
  To move forward with my life, have to let him be
    But it's okay, I understand
  (You've got to leave)
  I don't cry no more baby, what for?
  (You don't shed a tear for me)
  See, I was blind but now I see
  There's gotta be a better man for me

    There's gotta be a better man
  Ooh, God, hear me now
  Cuz God, give me the strength and the courage I need
  Cuz I know now, baby
