One Good Reason

Why do I feel this way?

I've played this scene before.

Why can't I understand

That I'm not needed anymore?

Can you feel the wind

On this cold midwinters night?

It chills you to the bone

But it's a comfort.

I can't take this anymore

Now I've lost my pride;

I'd just thought I'd let you know

You've killed

You've killed a man inside.

Give me one good reason to stay,

Give me one good reason to try,

'Cause I need reason to live,

And I need a reason not to cry.

You've burned your bridges now,

There is now turning back.

I'm taking no excuses

And I don't want you back.

Why must I stay here?

When I just want to get away.

I'm gonna pack my bags and leave this town,

There's no-one left who can hold me down!

Give me one good reason to stay,

Give me one good reason to try,

'Cause I need reason to live,

And I need a reason not to try-y-y-y.

Give me one good reason to stay,

Give me one good reason to try,

'Cause I need reason to live,

And I need a reason not to cry.

Give me one good reason to stay,

Give me one good reason to try,

Give me one good reason to live,

And one good reason not to cry-y. Whoa-oh.
