Song Lyrics

I've been feeling lately like being single or just alone,
to get into myself
Love ain't easy, it can be crazy games that we play,
Sometimes the rules have to change
I don't wanna treat her cruel, but I like honesty,
so what am I gonna do?

[Chorus]
I guess I'll do what I gotta do and break her heart.
I don't wanna see her cry but it's hard to live a lie
So I gotta do what I gotta do and break her heart
And though I love the girl I know that the best thing
is for us to be apart

Any good relationship starts inside of a happy man
I think she will understand
If I tell her straight then she can only respect me,
even if we don't agree
I don't wanna treat her cruel, but I like honesty baby,
so what am I gonna do?

[Chorus]

Oh let me break to you gently
I don't want to (do what I gotta do) hurt you
All that I can do (what am I gonna do)
And I don't wanna see ya cry baby
but what am I gonna do?

[Chorus]

The best thing is for us to be apart
