Aaron Tippin Lyrics
"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
