Have It Your Way

Have it your way

(Verse 1)
You said we were done
We were through
I spent a lot of days 
Trying to be with you
Did everything I thought was right 
Just like an airplane 
You hurried and took flight 
 Didn't bother to check 
Always hollering about respect
There's nothing more to say
Boy, have it your way

(Chorus)
Seem like my way wasn't the route
Should've ended it without a doubt
Listening to what others said
Should've listen thy self and stayed ahead
Ahead of the game at all times
At some point there is a line 
That has to be drawn 
So people can understand where you coming from
So hooked on what others say 
It's cool have it your way

(Verse 2)
I never understood
When you had it good 
You tried to do everything you could
To break what we built
Come to me with the guilt trip 
And I wasn't buying it
Ain't no need in trying it
You had it all 
And you played 
A lot of people would trade 
To have someone so honest and true 
Someone who loves you for you
Hmmmm nothing left to say 
Baby please have it your way 

Chorus)
Seem like my way wasn't the route
Should've ended it without a doubt
Listening to what others said
Should've listen thy self and stayed ahead
Ahead of the game at all times
At some point there is a line 
That has to be drawn 
So people can understand where you coming from
So hooked on what others say 
It's cool have it your way

(Hook)
Time after time
I've tried 
All I was fed was lies 
Time after time 
I've tried 
All I was fed was lies 

Chorus)
Seem like my way wasn't the route
Should've ended it without a doubt
Listening to what others said
Should've listen thy self and stayed ahead
Ahead of the game at all times
At some point there is a line 
That has to be drawn 
So people can understand where you coming from
So hooked on what others say 
It's cool have it your way

Repeat until chorus fades
