Rory Gallagher - If I Had A Reason Lyrics
If I had a reason I'd tell you what it is,Must I explain how I feelI've tried and I've tried to make it so clearBut my time is just wasted I fearWell it's only an old song but it serves it's purpose so wellBy the cry in your voice Im can tellWhen you sing there's a feeling behind the wordsThat brings it all back againI'm reaching, I'm reaching, while you slip awayI'm searching for words I can sayI'm listening, I'm listening, tryin' not to hearYou say that we might met one dayThere's a picture that's faded and curling from it's frameOf a face that smiles patiently,It might smile forever to make me feel betterBut I might just bust it and see.Oh I'm reaching, I'm reaching while you slip away,I'm searching for words I can't say.I'm listening, I'm listening tryin' not to hearYou say that we might meet some dayThere's answers to questions that we both wanna knowBut those answers keep evading meThere's rhymes and there's reasons,There's rights and there's wrongsFor being what you are to me.If I had a a reason I'd tell you what it isWould you do the same thing for ne?"Cause the minute you go there's one thing I know,That day will mean nothing to me.
