The Reason
e.l. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Have you ever been so close to love?
Have you ever feel so strange but alive?
It's something you cannot control all the time
But when it comes you faint and die for a while
You believe to lose your mind
But you know you can't but dream her gorgeous and brilliant face
You're not afraid of her
She is a girl who waits for you and can give you what you need
And it's true what I found

I know where you are I know what you are
You're so amazing I don't give up to you
I'm losing my mind I'm crazy for you
The reason why I live is you my baby
Your beauty makes me feel unable to everything
Defenseless and spellbound about what I found

Have you ever been so close to God?
Have you ever tread on air sometimes?
It's like dying and living at the same time
It's like understand the meaning of this life
For any reason in the world
I wouldn't want to lose you I would be an empty man
I don't wanna leave it now
I feel stronger than before everyhing is clear
And it's true what I found

I know where you are I know what you are
You're so amazing I don't give up to you
I'm losing my mind I'm crazy for you
The reason why I live is you my baby




Your beauty makes me feel unable to everything
Defenseless and spellbound about what I found this time

I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
Thats why I need you to hear

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is You

and the reason is You [x3]

I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you

It’s September 5, 2023 and I still love this song till this day. I can’t forget the memories that I had with my kids mother 10 years are hard to let go just like that. I still have so much love for you and wish the best for you some part of me wish that we were still together, but every time I hear this song, it brings me to tears out of everything I’ve been through with you
