It Doesn’t Have to Be (Live) [Tom O’Connor Roadshow - 1987/03/02] Erasure

[Intro: Andy Bell]
You are on one side
And I am on the other
Are we divided?

[Verse 1: Andy Bell]
You are on one side
I am on the other
Are we divided?
Why can't we live together?

[Pre-Chorus 1: Andy Bell]
There are no rights
This isn't your decision
We need to talk of changing things
But no one wants to listen

[Chorus: Andy Bell]
It doesn't have to be like that
It doesn't have to be like that
It doesn't have to be like that

[Verse 2: Andy Bell]
A heart on the inside
The same as any other
Are we divided?
Someone always has to suffer
