[Verse 1]
He's a hell of a man
In the palm of my hand
Everything I wanted
Knew it from the moment
He said my name
Felt the heat of the flame
Dancin' 'round the kitchen
Damn it, we were livin'

[Pre-Chorus]
So why am I doin what I always do?
Findin' another way to prove

[Chorus]
That somethin' about me can't stick around
He's all the way in and I'm on the way out
Am I just a runner runnin' from another?
Missin' my chance with a damn good thing
Damn, I hate where I am right now
Between a hell of a man
And hell if a man can't hold me down

[Verse 2]
He's a hell of a man
I know he'll understand
He's stubborn and he's patient
And knowin' he'll be waitin'
Is the hardest part, didn't wanna break his heart
[Chorus]
But somethin' about me can't stick around
He's all the way in and I'm on the way out
Am I just a runner runnin' from another?
Missin' my chance with a damn good thing
Damn, I hate where I am right now
Between a hell of a man
And hell if a man can't hold me down

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh

[Bridge]
So why am I doin what I always do?
Findin' another way to prove

[Chorus]
That somethin' about me can't stick around
He's all the way in, I'm on the way out
Am I just a runner runnin' from another?
Missin' my chance with a damn good thing
Damn, I hate where I am right now
Between a hell of a man
And hell if a man can't hold me down
Between a hell of a man
And hell if a man can't hold me down
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, yeah
