You need somebody with a PhD
Someone who's home
Steady as stone
But I'm tryna get this B-A-G

And you hate the jokes
Just like you hate the road
And you compromise a bit too much

I see what it takes
I see how you break
But you never put that weight on us

Oh, isn't that something?

Maybe I'm wrong to have thought we had everything
Maybe I'm wrong to assume you'd be fine
Maybe it's time that I see on your side of things
Maybe it's time

So if you gotta leave me
Make sure you take the best of me
And if you gotta keep it
Then I'll build on what you left of me

Oh, if you gotta go
Don't hesitate at all
Just know that I will keep us in my bones

But if you gotta leave me
Then make sure you take the best of me

'Cause that's what you are
Ah-ah-are

I can't pretend like I'll just be okay
'Cause I'm not at all
But all that I know
Is you deserve to have it go your way

So tell me what you want
And I'll follow along

'Cause maybe I'm wrong to have thought we had everything
Maybe I'm wrong to assume you'd be fine
Maybe it's time that I see on your side of things
Maybe it's time

So if you gotta leave me
Make sure you take the best of me
And if you gotta keep it
Then I'll build on what you left of me

Oh, if you gotta go
Don't hesitate at all
Just know that I will keep us in my bones

Oh, if you gotta leave me
Then make sure you take the best of me

'Cause that's what you are
Ah-ah-are
That's what you are
Ah-ah-are

You need somebody with a PhD
Someone who's home
Steady as stone
Oh, and maybe that someone ain't me

So if you gotta leave me
Make sure you take the best of me
And if you gotta keep it
Then I'll build on what you left of me, yeah

Oh, if you gotta go
Don't hesitate at all
Just know that I will keep us in my bones

Oh, if you gotta leave me
Then make sure you take the best of me

'Cause that's what you are
Ah-ah-are
That's what you are
Ah-are
