A Reason Not To Go

You said that I was wrong
I never said I was right
I reckon just another reason why
You're packing up a bag
Running for the open road
Standing on my doorstep telling me goodbye

Goodbye lady
Goodbye pal
Goodbye sweet my darling
And goodbye gal
But before you say goodbye
Look into my eyes
It's there you'll find I know
You're reason not to go

You said there's no excuse
For the way I treated you
You deserve much better this I know
I'm a fool you see
And will always be
But I swear I never meant for you to go

Goodbye lady
Goodbye pal
Goodbye sweet my darling
And goodbye gal
But before you say goodbye
Look into my eyes
It's there you'll find I know
You're reason not to go

Just before you left
You took one last breath
Said there is no other way I know
You have a thousand reasons why
But a tear inside my eye
Reflects a love we shared so long ago

Goodbye lady
Goodbye pal
Goodbye sweet my darling
And goodbye gal
But before you say goodbye
Look into my eyes
It's there you'll find I know
You're reason not to go
