WE DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS
(Gary Burr / Victoria Shaw)


Tanya Tucker - 1993



        

If anyone had told me things would get this far
I'd have told them they were crazy, yet here we are
Pride can be our enemy, we both know the cost
So tell me if you're having second thoughts

We don't have to do this, it's not carved in stone
Or are we so lost we can't find our way back home
Tell me where's it written that we can't change our minds
We don't have to do this, we don't have to say goodbye

Years should count for something, tears can't be in vain
To let this go so easy would be a shame

We don't have to do this, it's not carved in stone
Or are we so lost we can't find our way back home
Tell me where's it written that we can't change our minds
We don't have to do this, we don't have to say goodbye

If leaving is the answer, why does this feel so bad
Should we really walk away from everything we had
Tell me where's it written that we can't change our minds, no
We don't have to do this, we don't have to say goodbye
We don't have to do this, we don't have to say goodbye
