Stanley Michael - One Good Reason Lyrics

from "Stagepass"(Live at the Agora), 1976, EMI Records Group
I can't conceive of trying
Trying it all again
For one time I'm not buying
All the lies that never end
I think we've gone about as far
as we're ever gonna go
And seeing you for what you are
was enough to let me know


(CHORUS:)
Ain't nothing you can say now
gonna make me change my mind
Just give me one good reason
why I ought to love you
One good reason, why I shouldn't
put someone above you


Look who's going under
Trying to make it last
Don't want to steal your thunder
but the time for saving's past
(It's so far gone)
And all the talk that's going down
well, I never ever bought a line
No reason left to hang around
And I just don't have the time


(CHORUS:)
Ain't nothing you can say now
gonna make me change my mind
All I need is one good reason
Tell me why--why I ought to love you
One good reason
Ya got to give me one

All I need is one good reason
Tell me why, why I ought to love you
One good reason
Baby, it's the end
