[Verse 1:] You could be a good girl You could be a great guy Same rules apply, do or die You can love her one day Hate him on the next day No one really knows when or why Maybe you had a hard day at work She had a hard day too And now you both have an attitude, yeah But just remember that you both Love each other very much So go ahead and make up [Chorus:] No matter how hard you try There ain't no getting by the hard times It's always gon' be something No matter how positive you live Or how much love you give, I'm telling you It's always gon' be something Always one thing after another Just keep living, you'll discover You can't let it stress you out It's just a part of life, I'm telling you It's always gon' be something [Verse 2:] You could have a good love You could have a rich love Same rules apply, do or die Either it'll make you, baby it'll break you You will know the outcome in time He's gonna make you cry She's gonna tell a lie But you need to know that If it's really love That fight-for-it love You gotta hold on, 'cause [Chorus] [Bridge:] You can find a new man It won't matter and If you find a new chick It won't matter 'cause Cain't run away from life Whether it's good or bad So take the good with the bad And try to make it last 'Cause love is all we have Love is all we have [Chorus] It's always gon' be something It's always gon' be something
