No Reason
Toth Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wanna be happy for no reason
Like the sun rising exactly
In every season

I wanna be free,
I wanna believe
That all of my dreams
Keep waking up

And i wanna love
I wanna be touched
But softly at first

I wanna be happy for no reason
Like the sun rising exactly
In every season

You've been here before
You opened the door
You walked straight on through
There's nothing to do
And nothing is wrong
If nothing is right
We're happy now and
Yes we practice magic

I wanna be free,
I wanna believe
That all of my dreams
Keep waking up
And i wanna love
I wanna be touched
But softly at first

You've been here before
You opened the door
You walked straight on through
There's nothing to do
And nothing is wrong
If nothing is right

We're happy now and
Yes we practice magic

Overall Meaning

Toth's song No Reason is an uplifting anthem that celebrates the simple joys of life without the need for a specific reason. The opening lines of the song express the singer's desire to be happy without any external stimuli or materialistic possessions, like the sun rising every season. The lines "I wanna be free, I wanna believe, that all of my dreams keep waking up" highlight the importance of personal freedom and holding onto true aspirations.

The lyrics suggest that happiness can be found in small, meaningful moments and that magical moments can occur when nothing is planned or anticipated. The lines "nothing is wrong if nothing is right" indicate that it's okay to have a day without any set plan and that life has the power to surprise us. The concept of "practicing magic" elevates the idea that anything is possible if you believe it to be.

I found you on Tiny Desk and I must say you are one of the most original inspiring song writers of our time. Your delivery is perfectly melancholic and full of existentialism angst.

My manager told me about this song at my work and it perfectly portrays how I felt that whole summer I worked there from when I was hired to when I was fired by a higher up. Feeling that I know I’ve done nothing wrong and can’t be brought down by that is weird but I like it.

So Toth came to Denver and opened for his own band Rubblebucket. At the time having heard Co-Pilot and No Reason, I bought my ticket to see him not Rubblebucket. Rubblebucket is fine, but those two songs are better than any of the energetic ditties that Rubblebucket puts out. And with I Awoke and Song to Make you fall in love with me coming out on Youtube since then. I have to say that I really prefer his solo work. So I cannot tell you how upset I was that during his entire set the majority of the audience at the Gothic theater talked over his performance as if he were not on stage. It would have been rude and odd enough if he was not also the headliner. But it was almost pathetic how the audience reacted. If I were him, I sure would have put on a sub par Rubblebucket set as a result. To his credit he did not seem to be affected by the rude audience. This is my favorite of the 4 great songs that i mentioned here.
