Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, once again my love
It's time for you to go
No need to explain anything
I know, I know, I know
[Verse 2]
This is the end of the road
It's the parting of the ways
And there's not much left for us to say
[Verse 3]
You keep telling me he's no good for you
You said you were gonna change your luck
You told me if he bothers you again, baby
He'll be dancin' to the jailhouse rock
[Verse 4]
Put him away, baby
Make him understand
Tell him his game is over
And then when you cry, I'll be your shoulder
[Verse 5]
Whatever you're going through
(I can make it better)
No one should be making you feel like you do
(I can make it better)
(And, oh, baby) Baby
Don't be a link in his chain
Tell him you wanna be free
You wanna love me
Don't let him get in the way, hey, hey, yeah
[Verse 6]
Every one time that he gives you pleasure
Ten times, he makes you wanna cry
You spend every night with the toss and the turn, baby
And wonder why in the world, oh, why?
(How in the world can you get any sleep?)
Tell them
(Every one knows the way that he creeps)
And it's time for the question, baby
What has he done for you lately?
So, baby
[Verse 7]
Whenever you want me to
I can make it better
I just need this one chance to prove it to you
(I can make it better)
(Oh, baby)
Baby
[Verse 8]
(Don't be a part in his game)
Go 'head and tell him it's over
Tell him to go
Oh, darlin', it's just a shame
(Better for you is better for me)
Yeah
Let's fall in love
And I'll make you see, baby
[Verse 9]
(Better for you is better for, better for me) Baby
Let's fall in love
And I'll make you, I'll make you see
(Listen, baby)
[Verse 10]
Never again will you hear a lie
Never again will you wanna cry
Never, oh, no
Will there be a teardrop in your eye
[Verse 11]
(Stop all this madness in the name of love)
(Tell him to leave, 'cause enough is enough)
Let him go, baby, and you can save your love for me
Tell him you've found somebody
Who'll give you the love that you just won't believe
[Verse 12]
Whatever you're going through
(I can make it better)
No one should be making you feel like you do
I can make it better
Oh, baby
Baby
[Verse 13]
Don't be a link in his chain
Go 'head and tell him it's over
Tell him to go
For, darling, it's just a shame
(Listen, better for you) Ooh, better for you
(I can make it better for you)
[Verse 14]
Better for you, so much better for you
I can make it better
(Yeah, babe)
Better for you, yeah, yeah, better for you
I can make it better
(For you)
[Verse 15]
Better for you, hey, better for you
I can make it better
(Yeah, baby)
Better for you, better for you
(I can make it better)
(For you)
Better for you, better for you
I can make it better
