Song Lyrics

Well I know this guy, we have a real good time
I let him get a little close
Do I like him, yes
Do I love him, no

We don't fight
And all my friends say we look good together
But try as I might
I just can't see me with him forever

I don't want a man I can live with
I want a love that leaves no room for doubt
I don't want a man I can live with
I want a man that I can't live without

Well I know this other guy
The kind that mamas like
Wears Armani suits
He wants to marry me, he's got money to boot

Imagine that
I'd have a life that's easy to get used to
It's a fact
But there's a real good reason I don't choose to

I don't want a man I can live with
I want a love that leaves no room for doubt
I don't want a man I can live with
I want a man that I can't live without

I don't want somebody just to have somebody
That's how I am, I'm that kind of girl
And even if it takes all the time in the world
I don't want a man I can live with
I want a love that leaves no room for doubt
I don't want a man I can live with
I want a man that I can't live without
