Doesn't Have to Be That Way
Will Hoge

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 me

But 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

Black 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 said

It's so much harder now

That the blues skies have gone away

I wish I had just one more day
