The Reason Lyrics by James Barre

0

[Verse 1]
Hours and hours and days I’ve been calling
Why won’t you answer the phone 
Last time I saw you the tears they were falling
And girl I admit I was wrong
See I was a fool
Throwing dirt undercover 
While you were alone feeling blue
Just give me a chance
Take me back i’mma show you
That my love is true
[Pre-Chorus]
You need a reason
To believe in us
You need a reason
Let me be the one
[Chorus]
Don’t say that you’re leaving
Cause I promise 
Baby I will never let you go
Don’t say that you’re leaving
Cause I won’t be right 
‘Till you tell me you’re coming home
Cause I don’t want to go another 
Second without you
I know I don’t deserve it 
Baby girl I need you
I wanna be that man that you dreamed of
The one that you’ve been waiting for 
I wanna be that man
[Verse 2]
Time after time wasn’t there when 
I should have been
Holding you close late at night
Yeah I was too busy to see you were hurting
But I’m gonna make it right
[Pre-Chorus]
You need a reason
To believe in us
You need a reason
Let me be the one
[Chorus]
Don’t say that you’re leaving
Cause I promise 
Baby I will never let you go
Don’t say that you’re leaving
Cause I won’t be right 
‘Till you tell me you’re coming home
Cause I don’t want to go another 
Second without you
I know I don’t deserve it 
Baby girl I need you
I wanna be that man that you dreamed of
The one that you’ve been waiting for 
I wanna be that man
[Bridge]
I can’t even hide it
You know I need you
Lets not try and fight it
You are my reason
Just give me a chance 
It won’t be a mistake
I need you by my side
Girl I want you to stay
You know
Woah
[Chorus]
Don’t say that you’re leaving
Cause I promise 
Baby I will never let you go
Don’t say that you’re leaving
Cause I won’t be right 
‘Till you tell me you’re coming’ home
Cause I don’t want to go another 
Second without you
I know I don’t deserve it 
Baby girl I need you
I wanna be that man that you dreamed of
The one that you’ve been waiting for 
I wanna be that man
[Tag]
Yeah 
Baby I wanna be that man
