| It was early in the morning
|
| I was in my car again
|
| And another day was dawning
|
| As the mist was rolling in
|
| I was driving down the coastline
|
| With no special place to go
|
| I was looking for a reason to keep
|
| Driving down that road
|
| The reason was you
|
| The reason was you
|
| You carried me through
|
| The reason was you
|
| I was headed nowhere special
|
| Just away from all the old
|
| I was feeling worn and tired
|
| From my years out in the cold
|
| And the radio was playing
|
| All the songs from long ago
|
| They reminded me of all the good things
|
| That we used to know
|
| The reason was you
|
| The reason was you
|
| You carried me through
|
| The reason was you
|
| Time will wait for no one
|
| Soon enough it will pass me by
|
| And even if I wonder
|
| I won’t ask the question why
|
| With a trust in what I’m feeling
|
| And a faith in God above
|
| I’ll take what I’ve been given
|
| And I’ll treasure it with love
|
| The reason was you
|
| The reason was you
|
| You carried me through
|
| The reason was you
|
| The reason was you
|
| The reason was you
|
| You carried me through
|
| The reason was you |
