Reasons

(album: Union - 2012)

There's a light on in Union street,
burning holes with it's fire and heat,
well let it melt the skin from my feet,
it won't stop me walking home.

I am laden but strong enough,
for loving hard and fighting rough,
well knock me down and break my bones,
it wont stop me walking home.

I got reasons,
I got reasons,
I got reasons,
I got reasons.
(This is where we meet, this is Union Street
this is how I want you to remember me.)

I can see that the water's deep,
but I'm taking a running leap,
well they can weigh me down with stone,
it wont stop me swimming home.

I am laden but strong enough,
to carry on when things get rough,
I'm not sure of where I roam,
but I know I'll make it home.

I got reasons,

I got reasons,
I got reasons,
I got reasons.
(This is where we meet, this is Union Street
this is how I want you to remember me.)

I'd dance alone,
I'd turn into stone for you,
I'd cry my eyes blind,
I'd lose my poor mind without you,
I'd stop all the clocks,
I'd live in a box just with you.
