Just The Way

Please forgive me
 For misreading into every word you said
 From the beginning
 I thought we were being careful
 I thought it was innocent
 I must admit that I was taken by surprise
 By your commitment not to look me in the eyes
 I've been a witness and I've watched you testify
 Now, I plead insanity instead of doing time
 I guess it's just the way you like it (Just the way, just the way)
 It's just the way you like it (Just the way, just the way)
 It's just the way you like it (Just the way, just the way)
 It's just the way, just the way you like it
 ♪
 Keep your distance
 Contact to a minimum
 Stay calm, cool, and collect
 Be consistent
 Show no signs of weakness
 Withdraw and disconnect
 I must confess that after all of this time
 Your mixed up messages still mess with my mind
 I guess I, I learned my lesson
 There's no question this time
 I haven't felt like this since 1995
 I guess it's just the way you like (Just the way, just the way)
 It's just the way you like it (Just the way, just the way)
 It's just the way you like it (Just the way, just the way)
 It's just the way, just the way you like it
 Don't bother to say goodbye
 Just walk away
 This will be the last time
 I offer my sound advice
 Because every time you leave
 A part of me dies
 ♪
 It's just the way you like it
 It's just the way you like it
 It's just the way you like it
 It's just the way, just the way you like it
 It's just the way you like (Just the way, just the way)
 It's just the way you like it (Just the way, just the way)
 It's just the way you like it (Just the way, just the way)
 It's just the way, just the way you like it
 I've been a witness and I've watched you testify
 Mixed up messages still mess with my mind
 Every time you leave a part of me dies
 Every time you leave a part of me dies
