(I gotta)
I've been feelin' lately like being single
Or just alone

To get into myself
(I gotta)
Love ain't easy

There can be crazy games
That we play
Sometimes the rules have to change



I don't want to treat her cruel

But I like honesty
So what am I gonna do?
I guess I'll



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



Be apart, ooh



(I gotta )

Any good relationship starts inside
Of a happy man
I think she will understand

(I gotta)
If I tell her straight up then she can only
Respect me

Even if we don't agree
I don't want to treat her cruel
But I like honesty, baby

So what am I gonna do?
Oh, I've got to do



Do what I gotta do
And break her heart

(Break her little heart)
And though I love the girl I know
That the best thing is for us to be apart



Listen baby, ooh



Oh, sugar, darlin'

(Do what I gotta do)
I gotta do what I gotta do
Oh, baby

(What am I gonna do?)
Ooh, let me break it to you gently
I don't want to

(Do what I gotta do)
Hurt you girl
All that I can do

(What am I gonna do?)
Do it, do it, do it, do it, do
And I don't want to see you cry, baby

But what am I gonna do?



It's hard to say
It's hard to say good-bye
To the way that things used to be

But I'll always be right there
When you need me
Ooh, so hard

Don't wanna say
Don't wanna say good-bye
(Ooh, baby)

And though I love the girl I know
(Ooh, little girl)
That the best thing (Ooh, little girl) is for us
To be apart



Looks like we're gonna have to say good-bye
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, beauty, bye, bye, baby



I don't wanna see you cry baby
But you know that it's driving me crazy
(Do what I gotta do)
Break her little heart
And though I love the girl I know

(Things will work out, it's gonna work out, oh baby)
That the best thing is for us to be apart
