The Way It Has To Be
The way it has to be
He feels so all alone...
living a lie knowing,
his house is not a home.
He tells his friends,
that she hasn't really gone
now he searches for,
the will to carry on.
He looks outside the window
for a sign of her return
but he knows deep down inside,
that bridge has burned.
Chorus
He's all alone in an empty house
not knowing what went wrong
now he learns to live without,
the love she gave him,
and the way it made him feel
now he just cannot believe,
that,
for now it's just, the way it has to be!
He pretends that he is strong
but the truth is he's weak
he searches for the right words
and the courage to speak
Bridge
So he prays to God at night
for the will to live,
and the way to make it feel alright
He knows down deep inside
his love for her he can't deny
He tries to sleep, but he's awake
and senses the pain, as his heart breaks
Chorus
He's all alone in an empty house
not knowing what went wrong
now he learns to live without,
the love she gave him,
and the way it made him feel
now he just cannot believe,
that,
for now it's just, the way it has to be!
He tries to sleep, but he's awake
he feels the pain, as his heart slowly breaks
Chorus
He's all alone in an empty house
not knowing what went wrong
now he learns to live without,
the love she gave him,
and the way it made him feel
now he just cannot believe,
that, for now it's just, the way it has to be!
repeat chorus
