Dan Fogelberg - The Way It Must Be текст песни

Baby, how could I have been so vain

To make you think that youre the only one to blame.

For all these distances and all of this pain

Baby, how could I have been so blind

To presuppose that your needs were just like mine

Youve been a prisoner for a long, long time.

But now you run from me

And I will set you free

If thats the way it must be.

I tried so hard to make you part of me

That every time I looked at you

I thought Id see

Someone that you could never ever be.

So full of pride that I could not see straight

I thought youd change

If I could only wait

I see the truth now but its much too late

Cause now you run from me

And I will set you free

If thats the way it must be.

Chorus

Oh--oh--baby howd it ever get so cold and mean

Oh--oh. is there nothing left but silence in between.

(repeat chorus)

Baby howd we hold on so long

To something both of us must have known was wrong

Were either fools or must be terrible strong.

Cause now you run from me.

And I will set you free

If thats the way it must be.
