Gary Nicholson - If Its Really Gotta Be This Way Lyrics

If it's really gotta be this way
I can take it, I know
I'll just carry on day to day
Until I make it on my own

I'll cry but I'll get by
And I'll forgive you girl, by and by
And I'll forget you someday
If it's really gotta be this way

If this is what you think you need
Then go ahead girl and do it
It doesn't make a lot of sense to me
But if it's what you want, I'll live through it

I'll cry but I'll get by
And I'll forgive you girl, by and by
I'll forget you someday
If it's really gotta be this way

In my heart
There'll always be a place for you
In my heart
I will always believe
We could've made it, you and me

I'll cry but I'll get by
And I'll forgive you girl, by and by
I'll forget you someday
If it's really gotta be this way

Yes, I'll forget you someday
If it's really gotta be this way
I can take it, I know
I can make it on my own
If it's really gotta be this way
