Lyrics
VERSE:
Dropping in to see her
I see the Margaritas I see no reason to stay
Guess they kissed and made up
Bad debts all paid up
I see no reason to stay
VERSE:
He's gone, he's history
That's what she swore to me
I see no reason to stay
What I saw was heart breaking True love, no mistaking
She giving him reasons to stay
CHORUS:
That's the way with hearts and minds
Love ain't easy to survive Easy to deny
VERSE:
I hear my heart speak
It's saying the wrong things
I hear no reason to stay
Flowers I meant to give her
Now float on the river
I've got no reason to stay
REPEAT CHORUS:
VERSE:
But the heart keeps pulling strings
Says 'damn what your mind thinks'
'I'll give you reasons to stay'
Yesterday her love was real
Why let doubts come and steal
All of your reasons to stay?
Instrumental...
LIFT:
Whip my heart off my sleeve
Then the phone rings
And I'm hearing her voice
My heart's aching
Seems I got no choice
I need her arms around me
REPEAT LAST VERSE
REPEAT CHORUS
OUTRO:
I think I'll stay
