Doesn't Have to Be That Way

Letra de Doesn't Have to Be That Way

There's a storm brewing out on the open sea Sweeping its way here to you and me But all the lights are out and the streets are dark And there's a soul without a fire trying to find a spark And this heartbreak season, it's leaving its mark on meBut it doesn't have to be that way, it's not the way that it has to be It's coming over the walls and I'm drowning in it can't you see It's not the way that it has to be, doesn't have to be that wayBlack night sitting heavy all around I got a mind full of heartaches and hand me downs I got a freight train screaming inside my head That says you can't find love in a stranger's bed And my mouth is full of all the words that I wish I had saidBut it doesn't have to be that way, it's not the way that it has to be It's coming over the walls and I'm drowning in it can't you see It's not the way that it has to be, doesn't have to be that wayIt's so much harder now that the blue skies have gone away I wish I had just one more dayWhiskey like water flowing down a drain And I'm wasted as a candle in a hurricane But you can't stop something that's this far gone Goodbyes are easier than I was wrongs Suicide ain't a matter of degreeBut it doesn't have to be that way, it's not the way that it has to be It's coming over the walls and I'm drowning in it can't you see It's not the way that it has to be, doesn't have to be that way
