The Reason Was You

(album: Old, New, Borrowed And Blue - 2007)

It was early in the morning
I was in my car again
And another day was dawning
As the mist was rolling in

I was driving down the coastline
With no special place to go
I was looking for a reason
To keep driving down that road

The reason was you
The reason was you
You carried me through
The reason was you

I was headed nowhere special
Just away from all the old
I was feeling worn and tired
From my years out in the cold

And the radio was playing
All the songs from long ago
They reminded me all the good things
That we used to know

The reason was you
The reason was you
You carried me through
The reason was you

The reason was you
The reason was you
You carried me through
The reason was you

Time will wait for no-one
Soon enough it will pass me by
Even if I wonder
I won't ask the question why

With a trust in what I'm feeling
And a faith in God above
I'll take what I've been given
And I'll treasure it with love

The reason was you
The reason is you
You carried me through
The reason is you

The reason is you
The reason is you
You carried me through
The reason is you
