If It’s Really Got to Be This Way
If it's really got to be this way
I will take it - I don't know
I'll just carry on day to day
Till I make it on my own
Oh, 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 way
If 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 it
Oh, 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 way
In my heart
There will always be a place for you
In my heart
I will always believe we could have made it, you and me
Oh, 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 way
Oh, yeah, yes, I'll forget you some day
If it's really got to be this way
If it's really got to be this way --
