Verse 1
You said I was your everything
The only one you want or need
I don't know what's going on
But I can tell something's wrong
Chorus 1
If you gotta run around
Be That Way
If you're gonna let me down
Hear me say
I'm not gonna hang around one more day
If you're gonna Be That Way
If you wanna work it out
Tell me how
Stop me from walking out
Do it now
Why do you keep playing those games you play
Does it have to Be That Way
Verse 2
If you're looking for a reason to spread your wings
You might be wondering
How it feels with someone new
Don't be thinking I'll be waiting if you change your mind
You think that love is blind
But I've got news for you
Chorus 2
If you gotta run around
Be That Way
If you're gonna let me down
Hear me say
I'm not gonna hang around one more day
If you're gonna Be That Way
If you wanna work it out
Tell me how
Stop me from walking out
Do it now
Why do you keep playing those games you play
Does it have to Be That Way
Bridge
It isn't up to me tell you what's wrong or right
We could talk all night
And still be where we were before
I used to think that I could find the truth in your eyes
Now all I see is lies, I can't do this anymore
If you gotta run around
Be That Way
If you're gonna let me down
Hear me say
I'm not gonna hang around one more day
If you're gonna Be That Way
If you wanna work it out
Tell me how
Stop me from walking out
Do it now
Why do you keep playing those games you play
Does it have to Be That Way
Bridge 2
Don't be thinking I'll be waiting if you change your mind
You think that love is blind
But baby, not this time…
Outro
If you gotta run around
Be That Way
If you're gonna let me down
Hear me say
I'm not gonna hang around one more day
If you're gonna Be That Way
If you wanna work it out
Tell me how
Stop me from walking out
Do it now
Why do you keep playing those games you play
Does it have to Be That Way
If you gotta run around
Be That Way
If you're gonna let me down
Hear me say
I'm not gonna hang around one more day
If you're gonna Be That Way
If you wanna work it out
Tell me how
Stop me from walking out
Do it now
Why do you keep playing those games you play
Does it have to Be That Way
