Lyrics
Gabriella: I gotta say what’s on my mind Something about us Doesn’t seem right these days Life keeps getting in the way Whenever we try somehow the plan Is always rearranged It’s so hard to say But I gotta do what’s best for me You’ll be okay

I’ve got to move on and be who I am I just don’t belong here I hope you understand We might find our place in this world someday But at least for now I gotta go my own way (my own way)

Don’t wanna leave it all behind But I get my hopes up And I watch them fall every time Another color turns to gray And it’s just too hard to watch it all Slowly fade away I’m leaving today ‘Cause I gotta do what’s best for me You’ll be okay

I’ve got to move on and be who I am I just don’t belong here I hope you understand We might find our place in this world someday But at least for now I gotta go my own way

Troy: What about us? What about everything we’ve been through? Gabriella: Well, what about trust? Troy: You know I never wanted to hurt you Gabriella: And what about me? Troy: What am I supposed to do? Gabriella: I gotta leave but I’ll miss you Troy: I’ll miss you

Gabriella: So I’ve got to move on and be who I am Troy: Why do you have to go? Gabriella: I just don’t belong here I hope you understand Troy: I’ll try to understand Gabriella: We might find our place in this world someday But at least for now Troy: I want you to stay Gabriella: I’ve gotta go my own way

Got to move on and be who I am Troy: What about us? Gabriella: I just don’t belong here I hope you understand Troy: I’ll try to understand Gabriella: We might find our place in this world someday (world someday) But at least for now I gotta go my own way I gotta go my own way I gotta go my own way
