The Reason Songtext
von Carole King

I figured it out
I was high and low and everything in between
I was wicked and wild and baby, you know what I mean
′Til there was you, yeah, you

Something went wrong
I made a deal with the devil for an empty I.O.U.
I've been to hell and back, but an angel was looking through
It was you, yeah, you, it′s all because of you

You are the reason
You are the reason I wake up every day
And sleep through the night
You are the reason, ooh the reason
In the middle of the night
I'm going down
'Cause I adore you
I want to floor you


I′m giving it up
No more running around, spinning my wheels
You came out of my dream and you made it real
I know what I feel, it′s you
It's all because of you

You are the reason
You are the reason I wake up every day
And sleep through the night
You are the reason, the reason
In the middle of the night
I′m going down
'Cause I want you
I want to touch you
I want to floor you (in the middle of the night I feel so lonely)
You are the reason, baby (baby)

You are the reason (you are the only reason)
You are the reason I wake up every day
And sleep through the night
You are the reason, the reason
Oh, yeah, yeah, mhmm, oh yeah
The reason
Mhmm, yeah
Because of you (because of your lovin′)
Yeah, you
