Dru Hill - Men Always Regret lyrics

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 f** It's how you live your life so you can keep her trust [CHORUS] 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 [Nokio] 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 [CHORUS] 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
