RACHAEL YAMAGATA - Reason Why lyrics

I think about how it might have been

We'd spend out days travelin'

It's not that I don't understand you

It's not that I don't want to be with you

But you only wanted me

The way you wanted me

So, I will head out along and hope for the best

And we can hang out heads down

As we skip the goodbyes

And you can tell the world what you want them to hear

I've got nothing left to lose, my dear

So, I'm up for the little white lies

But you and I know the reason why

I'm gone, and you're still there

I'm gone, and you're still there

I'm gone, and you're still there

I'll buy a magazine searching for your face

From coast to coast, or whatever I find my place

I'll track you on the radios, and

I'll sign your list in a different name

But as close as I come to you

It's not the same

So, I will head out along and hope for the best

We can pat ourselves on the back

As say that we tried

And if one of us makes it big

We can spill our regrets

And talk about how the love never dies

But you and I know the reason why

I'm gone, and you're still there

I'm gone, and you're still there

I'm gone, and you're still there

So, steal the show, and do your best

To cover the tracks that I have left

I wish you well and hope you find

Whatever you're looking for

The way I might've changed my mind,

But you only showed my the door

So, I will head out along and hope for the best

We can pat ourselves on the back

And say that we tried

And if one of us makes it big

We can spill our regrets

And talk about how the love never dies

But you and I, you and I know the reason why
