You say you've found another another you love better
You say you're gonna leave me pack up and go
You don't wanna hurt me but you've just gotta have her
And how will I take it you want to know
If you can live with it I can live without it
If you can face your conscience I can face my pride
If you can live with it I can live without it I did the only thing I know babay I tried
[ steel ]
Can you really take your rings off without feeling kinda dirty
Can you really kiss her while I'm wearing my name
Can you run your fingers all across her body
Without missin' me nd feeling ashamed
If you can live with it...
I did the only thing I know babay I tried
