If I had a reason I'd tell you what it is
Must I explain how I feel?
I've tried and I've tried to make it so clear
But my time is just wasted I fear
Well, it's only an old song but it serves its purpose so well
By the cry in your voice I can tell
When you sing there's a feeling behind the words
That brings it all back again
I'm reaching, I'm reaching while you slip away
I'm searching for words I can say
I'm listening, I'm listening, trying not to hear
You say that we might meet some day
There's a picture that's faded and curling from its frame
Of a face that smiles patiently
It might smile forever to make me feel better
But I just might wait to see
Oh I'm reaching, I'm reaching while you slip away
I'm searching for words I can't say
I'm listening, I'm listening, trying not to hear
You say that we might meet some day
There's answers to questions that we both wanna know
But those answers keep evading me
There's rhymes and there's reasons, there's rights and there's wrongs
For being what you are to me
If I had a reason I'd tell you what it is
Would you do the same thing for me?
'Cause the minute you go there's one thing I know
That the day will mean nothing for me
