Lyrics
Reasons Music and Lyrics by Shelley MacLeod (BMI)
(CD available: ShellMacJones@aol.com)
Shellee Mac, Shades of a Gypsy
I don’t know, all the reasons why you love me
No, I don’t know what it is inside
That makes you want to stay
Even now as you wrap your arms around me
We both know there are reasons you could go
No I don’t know
What it is, you think you see in me
Could it only be, not being all-alone
Even now, I see others that want to be with you
So I don’t understand the reasons
You don’t go
What have you found in us
That keeps you wanting more
When will you cry enough
And walk out that door
I’ll never know
All the reasons why you love me
No I don’t know, what it is
That makes you stay here at my side
Even now as you wrap your arms around me
We both know there are reasons you could go
If you wanted you could go
Why you still love me, I’ll never know
