Give Me One More Reason



You're on my mind this morning
There's things I need to say
You left without a warning
I had to call today
You saw me with a woman
That I had known before
It's only fair to tell you
She's nothing anymore
Give me one more reason to hold you
Give me one more reason today
Give me one more reason to love you
And I'll be here to stay
I never meant to hurt you
And make you turn away
I know it's hard to listen
To what I have to say
Give me one more reason to hold you
Give me one more reason today
Give me one more reason to love you
And I'll be here to stay
