[Verse 1]
Hey, I am looking for a love unconditional
Not one that goes wherever the wind blows, hey
So don't go changing on me as the seasons fade
And if that's too much to ask then you don't have to stay

[Pre-Chorus]
Because life is just too short to be unhappy
And I don't know what's become of you and me
You can go, just be free

[Chorus]
'Cause as it is
It's hard enough, hard enough
Living this life alone
I don't need you, I can do bad on my own
Hey, it's hard enough, hard enough
No use hanging around
I don't want you if you're gonna bring me down
Gonna bring me down
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
If you're gonna bring me down
If you're gonna bring me down

[Verse 2]
Let me be clear so we're seeing eye to eye
I want this forever, forever you and I, hey
But if you can't promise you'll be there through good and bad
Then I'd rather be by myself instead
[Pre-Chorus]
Because life is just too short to be unhappy
And I don't know what's become of you and me
You can go, just be free

[Chorus]
'Cause as it is
It's hard enough, hard enough
Living this life alone
I don't need you, I can do bad on my own
Hey, it's hard enough, hard enough
No use hanging around
I don't want you if you're gonna bring me down

[Bridge]
See, there's no use in fighting
Let's talk about it
To see just where we stand
And if we disagree and this is the ending
Just know that I understand

[Chorus]
'Cause as it is
It's hard enough, hard enough
Living this life alone
I don't need you, I can do bad on my own
Hey, it's hard enough, hard enough
No use hanging around
I don't want you if you're gonna bring me down
Oh-oh (Oh), oh-oh (Oh), oh-oh (Yeah, yeah), oh-oh (Yeah)
If you're gonna bring me down
If you're gonna bring me down
[Outro]
Oh-oh (Oh), oh-oh (Oh), oh-oh (Oh), oh-oh (Yeah)
If you're gonna bring me down
If you're gonna bring me down
