You're the reason

Jhana Bissonnette 1991 (Hawaii)

You're the reason
why I'm not around to try
you're the reason
why I'm still alive
You're the reason
why my eyes are finally dry
You're the reason
why I'm giving love another try

You're the reason
why my heart beats fast like thunder
You're the reason
why I'm not under a cloud
You're the reason
why my heart is without a knife
You're the reason
why mt heart is glued shut
You're the reason
why I smile
You're the reason
why I smile
you're the reason
why I wanna keep it awhile
