Album: LIFE AND TIMES

It Doesn't Have To Be That Way

Snowy nights and Christmas lights,
Icy window panes
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.

Chorus:- But it doesn't have to be that way
What we had should never have ended
And I'll be dropping by today
We could easily get it together tonight
It's only right.

Crowded stores, the corner
Santa Claus,
Tinseled afternoons,
And the sidewalk bands that play
their songs
Slightly out of tune.
On the windy winter avenues
There walks a lonely man
And if I told you who he is
I think you'd understand.

Repeat chorus.
