I hope you understand
That I have to send you away
You may not understand
But I know that you will one day

You're broken, I know this
And if you knew it
You would love me a whole different way

But that's how love goes, goes
That's how love goes, goes, goes, goes
That's how love goes

I tried to change you
Tried to make you into someone else (someone else)
I guess the only one I'm fooling
Is my stupid self

You're broken, we know that
And if you knew it
You won't fight me when I say farewell

That's how love goes, goes
That's how love goes, goes, goes, goes
That's how love goes, goes, goes, goes
That's how love goes, goes, goes, goes
That's how love

Say one day I'll be back
Don't hold your breath
Just know I hold a place
For you always

'Cause that's how love goes, goes
That's how love goes, goes, goes, goes
That's how love goes, goes, goes, goes
That's how love goes, goes, goes, goes
That's how love (goes)

Yeah, yeah
Oh
That's how love goes, yeah (ooh, whoa)
