Chorus
Nikki Baby
I really tried to be your man
Give me this one last chance
Just to help you understand
Nikki Baby
Did you have to treat me this way
And did it after our first date
After all the plans we made
Verse One
I know you have nothing else to say
Just let me clear my name
Give me time to explain
Then I'll let you go on your way
I don't think I'm the bad guy
Since you never gave me time
Or the chance to fix my life
We only knew each other for a night
I would have done anything you wanted me to do
To make the pathway clear for us to go through
Chorus
Nikki Baby
I really tried to be your man
Give me this one last chance
Just to help you understand
Nikki Baby
Did you have to treat me this way
And did it after our first date
After all the plans we made
Verse Two
I thought we'd start out as friends
That would build a love that wouldn't end
You cut it short before we began
Now we'll never know what could have been
Unless you give one more try
But knowing you, that's a waste of time
You made it clear that you won't think twice
You won't even put up a fight
But the difference between me and you is
Whatever was going on in your life, I'd have stuck with you through it
Chorus
Nikki Baby
I really tried to be your man
Give me this one last chance
Just to help you understand
Nikki Baby
Did you have to treat me this way
And did it after our first date
After all the plans we made
Bridge
I've laid out my case
But the fact still remains
You gave me hope to believe
We could work through anything
But giving up so fast
Showed me we would not last
You don't want to compromise
So, to me, that's a blessing in disguise
Vamp Chorus
Nikki Baby
I really tried to be your man
Give me this one last chance
Just to help you understand
Nikki Baby
Did you have to treat me this way
And did it after our first date
After all the plans we made
Nikki Baby
I really tried to be your man
Give me this one last chance
Just to help you understand
Nikki Baby
Did you have to treat me this way
And did it after our first date
After all the plans we made
