I Could Never Take The Place Of You Man Lyrics - Singles - Jordan Knight

It was only last june 

When her old man ran way 

She couldn't stop crying 

'cause she knew he was gone to 2 stay 

It was 10:35 on a lonely friday night 

She was standin' by the bar 

Hmm, she was lookin' alright, yeah 

I asked if she wanted 2 dance 

And she said all she wanted was a good man 

And wanted 2 know 

If I thought I was qualified, yeah 

And I said, baby don't waste your time 

I know what's on your mind 

I may be qualified 4 a one night stand 

But I could never take the place of you man 

It hurt my so bad when she told me 

With tears in her eyes 

He was all she ever had 

And now she wanted 2 die 

He left her with a baby 

And another one on the way 

She couldn't stop cryin' 

Cause she knew he was gone to 2 stay 

She asked me if we could be friends 

And I said, oh, honey baby that's a dead end 

U know and I know 

That we wouldn't be satisfied 

No 

And I said 

Baby don't waste your time 

I know what's on your mind 

U wouldn't be satisfied 

With a one night stand 

And I could never take the place of your man 

Yeah, yeah, the place of your man.
