Don Williams - Reason To Be Lyrics

First I was love, then I came to be
I had a heart inside of me
And though my heart was working I found
Still there was something it had not found.

So I went away hoping to see
Maybe I'd find what's missing in me
Knowing so well but not knowing why
If I didn't find this something I'd die.

[Instrumental]

And then I came to where I had been
I knew the first was still not the end
What I had left was not what I found
Because there was you, because there I found.

First I was love, then I came to be
I had a heart inside of me
And though my heart is still part of me
You give my heart it's reason to be...
