I Can Make It Better (album version) Lyrics

Ooh.
Ooh, baby. Ooh, baby.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Ooh.
Ooh, baby. Ooh, baby.
Oh, oh, oh.

Well, once again, my love,
It's time for you to go.
No need to explain anything.
I know, I know, I know.
This is the end of the road.
It's the parting of the ways.
And there's not much left for us to say.

You keep telling me he's no good for you.
You said you were gonna change your lock.
You told me if he bothers you again, baby,
He'll be dancing to the Jailhouse Rock.
Put him away, baby.
Make him understand.
Tell him his game is over.
And then when you cry, baby, I'll be your shoulder.

Whatever you're going through,
I can make it better. (Uh)
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 want to be free. (Ooh)
You want to love me. (Ooh)
Don't let him get in the way, hey, hey, hey. (Listen, baby.)

For every one time he gives you pleasure,
Ten times he makes you wanna cry.
You spend every night with the toss and turn, baby,
And wonder why in the world, oh why.
How in the world can you get any sleep?
Everyone knows the way that he creeps.
And it's time for the question, baby,
What has he done for you lately?

So whatever you want me too, ooh, ooh, ooh,
I can make it better.
I just need this one chance to prove it to you.
I can make it better.
And oh baby, baby, don't be a pawn in his game.
Go ahead and tell him it's over. (Ooh)
Tell him to go. (Ooh)
Oh darling, it's just a shame.

Better for you is batter for me.
Let's fall in love and I'll make you see, baby.
Better for you (Better) is better for, better for me, baby.
Let's fall in love and I'll make you, I'll make you see. (Listen, baby.)

Never again will you hear a lie.
Never again will you want to cry.
Never, oh no, will there be a teardrop in your eye.
Stop all this madness in the name of love. (Tell him.)
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.

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.
Go ahead and tell him it's over. (Ooh)
Tell him to go. (Ooh)
Oh darling, it's just a shame. (Listen, baby.)

Better for you, better for you.
I can make it better for you.
Better for you, so much better for you.
I can make it better, yeah, baby.
Better for you, yeah, yeah.
Better for you.
I can make it better for you.
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.
