I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man

I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man (我永遠無法代替你的人) - Prince

Written by：Prince

It was only last June when her old man ran away

She couldn't stop crying because she knew he was gone to stay

Ten thirty-five on a lonely Friday night

She was standing by the bar

Hmm she was looking alright yeah

I asked if she wanted to dance

And she said that all she wanted was a good man

And wanted to know if I thought I was qualified yeah

And I said baby don't waste your time

I know what's on your mind

May be qualified for a one night stand

But I never take the place of your man

Hurt me so bad she told me

With tears in her tears in her eyes

He was all she ever had and now she wanted to die

He left her with a baby and another one on the way yeah

She couldn't stop crying

Cause she knew he was gone to stay yeah

She asked me if we could be friends

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

You know and I know that we would be satisfied no

And I said baby don't waste your time

I know what's on your mind

Wouldn't be satisfied with a one night stand

And I could never take the place your man
