It's taken me some time to read, the writing on the wall
But I have finally figured out, just what's been going on
And I need to tell you what I've learned, before you turn to go
There's things about that other man, I think you should know.
The Man That Came Between Us, was lookin' out for number one
He didn't care how bad he hurt you, by the selfish things he'd done
But lookin' in the mirror today, I finally came to see
The Man That Came Between Us Was Me.
I know I'm sorry don't make up, for half the tears you've cried
And I can't promise miracles, but I swear to God I'll try
Cause if you'll give me half a chance, I'll treat you like I should
Honey your lovin' man's come home again
And that stranger's gone for good.
The Man That Came Between Us, was lookin' out for number one
He didn't care how bad he hurt you, by the selfish things he'd done
But lookin' in the mirror today, I finally came to see
The Man That Came Between Us Was Me.
Oh honey, The Man That Came Between Us Was Me.
