One Million Reasons

(album: Pay Attention - 2000)

If I could have my way you wouldn't leave
There's nothing I can do about it
Nothing I believe
There's gotta be a million reasons to stay
A million more to not walk away
If I could have my way you wouldn't leave

And I could list each one
Where would that get me?
It's been said and done
It's just a list
A million reasons that I missed

I realise I probably brought this on
What good will that do me?
Probably no good when you're gone
There's gotta be a million reasons to stay
A million more to not walk away
I realise I probably brought this on

And I could list each one
Where would that get me?
It's been said and done
It's just a list, a million reasons
And I don't want to list the reasons that I missed

I was caught off guard
I've never been hit so hard
I've never been hit as hard as this
Too hard to be explained
Nothing will be regained
And I'll gain nothing from the list

If I could have my way you wouldn't leave
I realise I probably brought this on
One, two, three, four!

[Repeat until end:]
A million reasons why you should stay
A million reasons why you should stay
