Lyrics

"The Way It Has To Be"
(Matt Grimshaw)

Verse 1:
Every time I wake up to it
I know I can see right through it
That's the way it has to be

And every day I get down to it
Only for myself to prove it
That's the way it has to be

Chorus:
The more you dream
The more you come to see
The more you see
The better off you'll be

Verse 2:
Every day I stand up for it
There's no way you can ignore it
That's the way it has to be

Truth, I had a chance to view it
All my life I know I knew it
That's the way it has to be

Chorus

Bridge:
It does you no good to get down
It does you no good to get down
It does you no good to get down
It does no good to get...

Verse 3:
If things never work out for you
And life seems to be a chore too
That's the way it has to be

But if someday you think you've found it
Reach out, wrap your arms around it
That's the way it has to be

Chorus
