Lately we see things different
Not saying it's wrong, but it ain't right
And every time we have a disagreement
It always ends in a fight

That's when I told her
It's getting kind of complicated
I don't think you understand the rules
Thinking maybe we should separate it
And find the truth

I gotta go now
Gotta pack my bags and leave you alone now
No more turning back
I gotta go now, everything we've built to last
Is on hold now, so we can look at it
'Cos you know ('cos you know)
It's worth fighting for
And I know (and I know)
That's why I gotta go
They say distance makes the heart grow fonder

The honeymoon was perfect, everyday was worth it
The reason I said 'Yeah I do'
But as the time went on, it started to unfold
You're not the person I thought that I knew

That's when I told her
It's getting kind of complicated
I don't think you understand the rules
Thinking maybe we should separate it
And find the truth

I gotta go now
Gotta pack my bags and leave you alone now
No more turning back
I gotta go now, everything we've built to last
Is on hold now, so we can look at it
'Cos you know ('cos you know)
It's worth fighting for
And I know (and I know)
That's why I gotta go
They say distance makes the heart grow fonder

Turn away, play it safe, say it was a mistake
Let it go, and say we're through
Or we could start again, make amends,
Take it back where we began
I'm leaving it all up to you

I gotta go now
Gotta pack my bags and leave you alone now
No more turning back
I gotta go now, everything we've built to last
Is on hold now, so we can look at it
'Cos you know ('cos you know)
It's worth fighting for
And I know (and I know)
That's why I gotta go
They say distance makes the heart grow fonder
