If It's Really Got To Be This Way

If it's really got to be this way
I can take it, I don't know
I'll just carry on day to day
Till I make it on my ownOh, I'll cry, I'll get by
I'll forgive you girl by and by
And I'll forget you some day
If it's really got to be this wayIf this is what you think you need
Go ahead girl and do it
Doesn't make a lot of sense to me
But if it's what you want I'll live through itOh, I'll cry, I'll get by
I'll forgive you girl by and by
And I'll forget you some day
If it's really got to be this wayIn my heart
There will always be a place for you
In my heart
I will always believe we could have made it you and meOh, I'll cry and I'll get by
And I'll forgive you girl by and by
And I'll forget you some day
If it's really got to be this wayYes, I'll forget you some day
If it's really got to be this way
If it's really got to be this wayIf it's really got to be this way
If it's really got to be this way
If it's really got to be this way
I can make it I can make itIf it's really got to be this way
