Gotta Be

This don't gotta be, gotta be
 This don't gotta be
 This don't gotta be
 This don't gotta be, gotta be
 This don't gotta be
 This don't gotta be
 Baby wait
 I know you feel I'm stepping away, girl
 But I don't wanna end it this way, girl
 No, no (I need you)
 Stay girl, stay
 Please won't you just give me a moment
 And listen to your heart for a moment
 Oh yeah
 It's been a long ride
 We just need time
 To try to figure out some things
 Cause we've been on this road before
 And there ain't no turning back, baby
 Don't you cry
 I'm gonna make it right
 Baby your love is all I know
 And I'd be a fool to let it go
 I can see it in your eyes
 Baby there's a pain inside
 This is the lowest I will go
 And we're gonna make it through I know
 And tell me girl
 This don't gotta be, gotta be
 This don't gotta be
 This don't gotta be
 The thing that kills us
 The thing that kills us
 The thing that does it
 Let me explain
 I know I haven't given my time girl
 You're the only one on my mind girl
 (And I'm out here doing these shows)
 Things will change
 I know you think I always ignore you
 But all the things I do, I do for you
 (You better, I'm treating you better)
 It's been a long ride
 We just need time
 To try to figure out some things
 Cause we've been on this road before
 And there ain't no turning back, baby
 Don't you cry
 I'm gonna make it right
 Baby your love is all I know
 And I'd be a fool to let it go
 I can see it in your eyes
 Baby there's a pain inside
 This is the lowest I will go
 And we're gonna make it through I know
 I'm telling ya
 This don't gotta be, gotta be
 This don't gotta be
 This don't gotta be
 The thing that kills us
 The thing that kills us
 The thing that does it
 This don't gotta be, gotta be
 This don't gotta be
 This don't gotta be
 The thing that kills us
 The thing that kills us
 The thing that does it
 Oh, love can take a toll
 But you are gonna have to trust me baby
 Keep holding on (and trust me baby)
 Keep holding on (and trust me baby)
 I know this ain't the death of us
 Cause girl I know our long is strong enough
 (Don't you cry
 I'm gonna make it right
 Baby your love is all I know
 And I'd be a fool to let it go)
 This don't gotta be, gotta be
 This don't gotta be
 This don't gotta be
 The thing that kills us
 The thing that kills us
 The thing that does it
 This don't gotta be, gotta be
 This don't gotta be
 This don't gotta be
 The thing that kills us
 The thing that kills us
 The thing that does it
