A Good Man

You could watch me in the Gentlemen's club
Substitutin' that dance just for love, love
I'm goin' home to an empty house
Thinkin' who should I call for some fun, hey
I never knew love until you, love
Never thought that I'd fall in love
Till you brought out of me
The man I always knew I could be, baby
I can count the lovers that I've had
And all of those relationships gone bad
I wanna thank you for guiding me
And showing me the hope
I was just a boy and not a man
Falling deep in love was not the plan
Baby, because of you and what you do
You made me a good man, oh, baby
Used to change my numbers every hour of the week
Gettin' crazy crank calls from them freaks
And they are here with a bottle of somethin'
Tryin' hard to for share on some ???
'Cause I-I never knew love until you, love
You showed me a true love
You gave me the chance
Now I understand how to be a good man, oh, yes
I can count the lovers that I've had (I've had)
All of those relationships gone bad (Relationships)
I wanna thank you for guiding me
And showing me the hope (The hope, yes)
I was just a boy and not a man (Not a man, no)
Falling deep in love was not the plan
Baby, because of you (You, you, you) and what you do
You made me a good man
Thank you for lovin' me
Where is the love that you promised to love and
When was the love that we share, where is your love,
oh, yeah
But if it aches you, my love's for nobody, nobody
Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody
(Oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...)
I can count the lovers that I've had (Baby, baby)
All of those relationships gone bad
I wanna thank you for guiding me
And showing me the hope
I was just a boy and not a man
Falling deep in love was not the plan
Baby, because of you and what you do
You made me a good man, oh, baby
It's all because of
you-you-you-you-you-you-you-you-you
