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 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 Maybe in time we'll shake the memories Maybe in time forget the pain But baby tonight, this heart remembers all the same 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 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 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
