It Doesn't Have to Be That Way

It Doesn't Have To Be That Way - Jim Croce (吉姆·克羅斯)

Snowy nights and Christmas lights

Icy windowpanes

Make me wish that we could be

Together again

And the windy winter avenues

Just don't seem the same

And the Christmas carols sound like blues

But the choir is not to blame

But it doesn't have to be that way

What we had should never have ended

And I'll be dropping by today

'Cause we could easily get it together tonight

It's only right

Crowded stores the corner Santa Claus

Tinseled afternoons

And the sidewalk bands play their songs

Slightly out of tune

Down the windy winter avenues

There walks a lonely man

And if I told you who he is

Well I think you'd understand

But it doesn't have to be that way

What we had should never have ended

And I'll be dropping by today

'Cause we could easily get it together tonight

It's only right

No it doesn't have to be that way

What we had should never have ended

And I'll be dropping by today

'Cause we could easily get it together tonight

It's only right
