Robert Plant - If It's Really Got to Be This Way lyrics

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 --
