Rhyme and Reason Songtext
von Tom Milsom

Last week I ran downtown
To see you and tell you I loved you
But just before I reached your door
I stopped and looked above to
Pray to anyone who′d hear me
Getting the pluck
To wish myself luck to say.

You're the reason to my rhyme
And it′s a shame, no it's a crime
That I've not told you that I love you
Caused I′ve never found the time,
You′re my happiness and sadness
You're the method to my madness
Nobody I′d rather be with
Nobody I'd ever be with.


And through your bedroom window
I saw you and you saw me.
The young man lying on your bed
Was right where I could clearly
See him telling you
What I had wanted to say
From the very first day we met.

You′re the reason to my rhyme
And it's a shame, no it′s a crime
That I've not told you that I love you
Caused I've never found the time,
You′re my happiness and sadness
You′re the method to my madness
Nobody I'd rather be with
Nobody I′d ever be with.

So two days passed
And then at last
I thought I'd try and ring you
And see if you were free
Then maybe we could go to town and
Get some food and see a film you wanted to see,
And then afterwards we′d go home.


You said that sounded great
But you'd a date with that young man who
I had seen previously
The time I had come round to see you.
And I don′t think I can hold this in any more
So I'm sorry if I bore you to death.

But you're the reason to my rhyme
And it′s a shame, no it′s a crime
That I've not told you that I love you
Caused I′ve never found the time,
You're my happiness and sadness
You′re the method to my madness
Nobody I'd rather be with
Nobody I′d ever...

You're the reason to my rhyme
And it's a shame, no it′s a crime
That I′ve not told you that I love you
Caused I've never found the time,
You′re my happiness and sadness
You're the method to my madness
Nobody I′d rather be with
Nobody I'd ever be with.
