One Good Reason
(Tubes/Rundgren/Welnick)
Just give me one good reason
I know somehow there's got to be one
I wasn't born every minute of everyday
I never feel this way
I fought hard to keep my freedom
But when I think of things that we've done
I get what I keep and I keep what I give away
Is this a good sign? I'm on a thin line
One good reason is all I need
Say the word and I'll cut you free
What was nothin' just yesterday
could be something that's here to stay
One good reason and I might go either way
Give me some indication
it's not my imagination
Something is born every minute of everyday
Something could come my way
I just need one good reason
to make me stay instead of leavin'
I never knew how to be any other way
Maybe there's still hope, I'm on a tight rope
One good reason is all I need
to take the heart that is tempting me
Make a move that can change your life
Never know if it's wrong or right
One good reason is all I need tonight
It just takes one good reason
My body sweats, my hands are freezin'
I don't make decisions like this every single day
What do I have to say
Just give me one good reason
Give me one good reason
One good reason is all I need
Say the word and I'll cut you free
What was nothing just yesterday
Could be something that's here to stay
One good reason is all I need
To take the heart that is tempting me
Make a move that can change your life
Never know if it's wrong or right
One good reason is all I need tonight
Just give me one good reason
Just give me one good reason
I know somehow there's got to be one
I wasn't born every minute of everyday
I never feel this way
I fought hard to keep my freedom
But when I think of things that we've done
I get what I keep and I keep what I give away
Is this a good sign? I'm on a thin line
One good reason is all I need
Say the word and I'll cut you free
What was nothin' just yesterday
could be something that's here to stay
One good reason and I might go either way
Give me some indication
it's not my imagination
Something is born every minute of everyday
Something could come my way
I just need one good reason
to make me stay instead of leavin'
I never knew how to be any other way
Maybe there's still hope, I'm on a tight rope
One good reason is all I need
to take the heart that is tempting me
Make a move that can change your life
Never know if it's wrong or right
One good reason is all I need tonight
It just takes one good reason
My body sweats, my hands are freezin'
I don't make decisions like this every single day
What do I have to say
Just give me one good reason
Give me one good reason
One good reason is all I need
Say the word and I'll cut you free
What was nothing just yesterday
Could be something that's here to stay
One good reason is all I need
To take the heart that is tempting me
Make a move that can change your life
Never know if it's wrong or right
One good reason is all I need tonight
Just give me one good reason
