The Reason I Stay Songtext
von Abby Anderson

How many times
Will I take this roller coaster ride?
Make myself sick before I realize
I can just step off?

And how many nights
Will I keep driving on an empty tank?
Every mile I go a little more insane
When I can make it stop

When "I love you" rolls right off your tongue
I forget your mouth′s a loaded gun

Yeah baby you're the reason I′m crazy
And lately you're the reason I cry
Yeah you're the only reason I hate me
And love you at the same damn time
How do you keep me so hopeless
And somehow believing you′ll change?
Cause you′re the only reason I ever wanna leave
And baby you're the reason I stay


When you′re good it's so fun
And holdin′ you was like the last of the sun
But then you dropped me down
When I ain't got a parachute
Fallin′ from the cloud that you just sent me to

And baby that's the reason I'm crazy
And lately you′re the reason I cry
Yeah you′re the only reason I hate me
And love you at the same damn time
Oh how do you keep me so hopeless
And somehow believing you'll change?
Cause you′re the only reason I ever wanna leave
And baby you're the reason I stay


Oh I wanna walk away
But I can′t walk away
And baby that's the reason I′m crazy
Mm mm
Baby that's the reason I hate me
For loving you all the damn time
Oh how do you keep me so hopeless
And somehow believing you'll change
Cause you′re the only reason I ever wanna leave
And baby you′re the reason I stay
Mm mm
You're the only reason I stay
