Dan Fogelberg Lyrics

The Way It Must Be Lyrics
Baby how could I have been so vain
To make you feel like you're the only one to blame
For all these distances and none of this pain
Baby how could I have been so blind
To presuppose that your needs were just like mine
You've been a prisoner for a long long time
'Cause now you run from me and I will set you free
If that's the way it must be
I tried so hard to make you part of me
That every time I looked at you I thought I'd see
Someone that you could never ever be
So full of pride I could not see straight
I thought you'd change if I could only wait
I see the truth now but it's much too late
'Cause now you run from me and I will set you free
If that's the way it must be

[Chorus:]
Oh-oh Oh-oh, how'd it ever get so cold and mean
Oh-oh Oh-oh, is there nothing left but silence in between

[Chorus]

Baby how'd we hold on so long
To something both of us must have known was wrong
We're either fools or must be terribly strong
'Cause now you run from me and I will set you free
If that's the way it must be
'Cause now you run from me and I will set you free
If that's the way it must be
'Cause now you run from me and I will set you free
If that's the way it must be
