Lyrics The Reason - Gil Ofarim

The Reason

Sitting here, sitting there
Sitting watching cars drive to the land of nowhere
Do I care?
Throwing buds, throwing coins
Throwing each other’s consciousness off the ground
All year round
But I know I must be strong
And I know that I have to carry on
You are the reason why I live
The reason why I cry
The reason why I always hate to say goodbye
The reason why I smile
I can’t deny
You’re the reason why I breathe
Because of your love
Running here, running there
Run to see you everywhere and anywhere
You are the one I need the most
But right now I feel like a ghost somehow
Somehow
Don’t wanna go where they are
Don’t want to go where they’ll be
It’s not the way it used to be
Don’t want to live in the past
It was running too fast
You are the reason
