It Doesn`t Have To Be This Way — текст песни (Survivor)

Sometimes alone at night I lie and wonder --
Was breaking up the only thing to do
We live our separate lives like perfect strangers,
But in the end, we`re really perfect fools --
Maybe in time we`ll shake the memories,
Maybe in time forget the pain --
But baby tonight, this heart remembers

*It doesn`t have to be this way --
We don`t need to live the lie anymore
I want you back, I`m holding on --
It doesn`t have to be this way
Here we stand -- love`s an open door,
It doesn`t have to be this way*

With breakin` up there comes this empty feelin`
The child within you, lost without a prayer
So you run a little wild searching for some meaning
Deep into the streets of your despair
What does it take to shake your memory --
What in the world could ease the pain
How can I make your heart surrender

( * Repeat)
