The Man That Came Between Us (was Me)

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

I need to tell you what I've learned before you turn to go

There's things about that other man I think that you should know

The man that came between us was looking out for number one

He didn't care how bad he hurt you by the selfish things he'd done

But looking 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

If, 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 looking out for number one

He didn't care how bad he hurt you by the selfish things he'd done

But looking 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
