The Reason Lyrics
(Carly Simon/Danny Kortchmar)The reason I wouldn’t kiss you last nightI wouldn;t kiss you ‘cause I was afriadThat I’d like you too muchAnd if I liked you too muchI’d be afraid that I’d give you a presentAnd if I gave you a gift,You might give me a giftAnd then I’d be afraid...That I wouldn’t like itThe reason, there’s always a reasonBehind the reasonWhen you look for a reasonA reason, I can give you a reasonAnd maybe you’ll thinkIt’s a really good reasonBut I come up with the reasonsYou asked me if I’d scratch your backI wouldn’t scratch it‘Cause I was afraid that I’d twist your armAnd if I twisted your armI’d be afraid that it would lead to passionAnd if we got too drunkWe might fall out of the bunkAnd then I;d be afriadWe would have a concussionCHORUSDon’t ever live with your real loveStop before it startsReal love will last much longerStay strongerLiving in your heartYeah, that’s where it belongs, in your heartThe reason, there’s always a reasonBehind the reasonWhen you look for the reasonThe reason, I can give you a reasonAnd maybe you’ll thinkIt’s a really good reasonBut I come up with the reasonI’ll never have another chanceAt the Parson’s dance(He’s gonna spank me)Gotta be an apple tree growing in the fieldGotta be at Frankie’s house right nowGotta be at Danny’s house dejaGotta meet a holy manHe’ll be in the valley when Amelia tries to land(With his shirt off)I can never be in love, I can only be in heatAnd I never felt so...never felt so...Never felt so...Hot
