Well, I couldn't resist the urge
to tell you the end of my story.
For all of those who wanted to know,
was there life after the pain?
After the pain, you come and love me.
You're a glad sight to see
And all that I have been through
I can still love you like I do
We sit and we talk a while
And I fight with all my might
To hold back the tears from falling
I can't believe you got the nerve
And I try to tell you no, it ain't so
But I guess love just ain't in me
Cause boy, I still love you like I do
Boy, you still do me like
Yeah, I know you're laughing
Those of you who've heard pain
Yeah, you're right, I sure did
I said I'd never take him back again
Well, it's a woman's prerogative
To change her mind, isn't it?
Well, we do it all the time.
It's just that you know me,
that having a piece of man
is better than having no man at all.
So I'm going to just take what I got
You understand what I mean?
And don't you remember thinking
when people used to try to help
on the verge of breaking up.
They used to cook up a little food
and whisper things in your ear like
Mr. Charlie is just a man
And he's doing the best he can
Mr. Charlie is just a man
That's why I still love you
I know that you know it's true
After all I've been through
I should be through with love
But there's a God up above
That keeps saying, Daddy, try
Don't give up, you know why
Cause you are mine, all mine
You just keep doing your best
Cause I love you, love you
That's why I still love you
My love is deeper than any ocean
And my love is higher than
My love is full of devotion
My love is in and out of season
You see, God is gonna bless me
For all the times that you
you make every secret you keep, boy,
you better be careful, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Said if you treat me bad or make me sad
My father in heaven is watching you
But I still love you like I love me
And no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, nobody's ever gonna love you like I do
No one's ever gonna love you like I do
No one's ever gonna love you like I do
Oh, there's a woman in me
Baby don't you know it's true
Still lovin' after the pain
