Has to Be That Way

Death is not my friend

But we've always kept in touch

We both know about the end

But we don't talk about it much

That's alright, yeah that's alright

I'm not searching for salvation

I'm just looking for a place to crash

When I find a little peace of mind

I know it just won't last

That's alright, that's the way it is

I know it just has to be that way

I know it just has to be that way

Ten billion years from now

The sun is going to burn out

Everything's got to go sometime

There's nothing I can do about it

That's alright, that's alright

Cause the crik runs to the river

And the river runs to the sea

everything s runnin somewhere

Tryin to find some place to be

That's alright, that's the way it is

I know it just has to be that way

I know it just has to be that way

We ain't here for long and we can't really stay

I know it just has to be that way

The days are getting darker

The night becomes so black

As the light completely fades away

Well there ain't no coming back

That's alright, yeah that's alright

I don't believe in much

But I do believe in you

We'll do the best with what we got

That's all we can do

That's alright, that's the way it is

I know it just has to be that way

I know it just has to be that way

We ain't here for long and we can't really stay

I know it just has to be that way
