Lyrics

The Reason

(Follett/Gambin)

I was a lost soul walkin? a deserted road;

my lonely heart carryin? a heavy load.

There were days I thought to myself, "I can?t take no more".

I did some crazy things I knew I shouldn?t do.

It?s amazin? that I somehow even made it through.

God gave me one last chance when I found you.

Darlin? you are the reason I?m still here.

You walked beside me through my fears.

You?re livin? proof that God?s out there.

You rescued me when I was runnin? out of time.

You put a smile back in my eyes.

You?re the reason I?m still here.

Whenever love came callin? I often ran,

?cause the boy was still livin? deep inside this man.

It took the woman in you to bring out the man in me.

Now it?s a brand new day & I?m a brand new man.

It took a long long time for me to understand,

that my heart had been locked up but you finally turned the key.

Repeat Chorus

Bridge

When I see your mornin? smile, I just wanna lay a while with you.

When I get that goodnight kiss, so glad I didn?t miss,

?cause you came & rescued me; I?m so alive.

Repeat Chorus
