Lyrics Jim Croce – It Doesn’t Have To Be That Way
Text:
Snowy nights and Christmas lights,
Icy windowpanes,
Make me wish that we could be
Together again
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
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 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
I’ll be dropping by today
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
I’ll be dropping by today
We could easily get it together tonight
