Reasons
Mimi Webb Lyrics

You're just like me only happy
You and I share the same sentiment, we're only truly happy when we're leaving social gatherings.

When you get to the leave the party
We find joy in the relief of social obligations and the ability to escape.

You never say goodbye we just go
We don't say goodbye because we don't want to socialize any longer than necessary.

We could stay here 'til the cops come
We could remain here in solitude for an exceptionally long time, without the need for conversation.

Watch the days pass talk to no one
We could spend hours, days, or weeks in the absence of outside interaction.

'Cause everybody else just makes me feel alone
The presence of others only amplifies our sense of loneliness, rather than abating it.

They make feel alone
Others make me feel estranged and secluded from society.

Like I was never there
The sensation of nonexistence in social contexts.

Oh, I hated everyone 'til you I swear
Prior to meeting you, I despised social interaction with anyone else.

We're just people made of broken pieces
Our personal flaws and imperfections make us who we are.

I got secrets you got secrets in your eyes
We both have hidden aspects of ourselves that we prefer to keep private, yet we can sense them in each other's company.

Why does sad love always taste the sweetest?
There is an inexplicable attraction towards tragic romance, despite its inherent sadness.

We got reasons we got reasons you and I
We have justification for our feelings, preferences, and behavior - no explanation necessary.

You're just like me far from normal
We're both outside of the social norm in our behavior.

Too impulsive, anti social
We don't adhere to social conventions or react to situations in predictable ways.

We bring out the baddest parts us
Our mutual company can evoke negative aspects of our personalities.

We could drive on straight to Tucson
We have the freedom to embark on spontaneous adventures without external constraints.

I'm the Bonnie you're Clyde, love
We're partners in crime, unbreakably bound in our mutual interests and sensibilities.

And everybody else is choking in the dust
The judgment and scrutiny of others are not a concern for us - we're too busy being ourselves.

They're choking in the dust
Others are left behind in our pursuit of individuality and independence.

Like we were never there
We pass through life without making a dent in other's perceptions of us.

Ooh
A vocal expression of emotion.

I got secrets you got secrets in your eyes
Re-emphasis of the fact that we both harbor hidden aspects of ourselves.

Ooh
A vocal expression of emotion.

We got reasons, we got reasons you and I
Final reaffirmation of the justifications for our behavior and feelings.
