Reason
Jens O. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I think it's time to talk with you
Think it's time to realize
Where is the love?

Are we gonna stay together?
Or is it time to say goodbye?
Where is the love?
Give me a reason
To hold on to what we've got
Must be a reason
To hold on to what we've got

Give me a reason
To hold on to what we've got
Must be a reason
To hold on to what we've got

Give me a reason

Give me a reason

Time has come to set things right
Is it worth another fight?
Tell me the truth

Is there something on your mind?
Tell me what you hide inside
Tell me the truth

Give me a reason
To hold on to what we've got
Must be a reason
To hold on to what we've got

Give me a reason
To hold on to what we've got
Must be a reason
To hold on to what we've got





Give me a reason
