"Give Me A Reason" lyrics

"Give Me A Reason"

You tell me that you can't make up your mind
You've been riding fences all your life
So go ahead and build your own little boat
Won't you tell me if it floats
And if it don't, don't you cry to me

Y'tell me maybe I'd be better off on my own
Just wanna hear me tell you baby that you're wrong

So damned tired of all these constant contradictions
Baby getting your convictions
I can't make up your mind (oh no)

So why can't you just look me in the eye
The very least you owe me is goodbye
If you want a heart ache
I'd give me a reason to run
If you want a love song
Give me a reason to write you one

You're talk an awful lot for having nothing to say
Leaving you free in your little cage
Won't you give me just a little piece of truth
It's less about me and it's more about you

So why can't you just look me in the eye
The very least you owe me is goodbye
If you want a heart ache
I'd give me a reason to run
If you want a love song
Give me a reason to write you one

So why can't you just look me in the eye
The very least you owe me is goodbye
If you want a heart ache
I'd give me a reason to run
If you want a love song
I'd give me a reason to write you one
I'd give me a reason to write you one
