Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I never could question her
I never could ask her reasons why
She never said a word
But she said it all with just one sigh
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And as she packed her suitcase
And as the tears fell from my eyes
And as I begged for her to stay
She turned and said to me
[Chorus 1]
I've got my reasons
Got my reasons for walking away
Nothing can stop me and nothing you've said makes me stay
[Verse 2]
Out on the street this afternoon
I thought I saw her pass me by
I caught the smell of her perfume
And that was when I caught her eye
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And as she smiled at me
And as she asked for one more try
And as she promised to be true
I knew it was my turn to say
[Repeat Chorus] (2x)
[Bridge]
She just had to find herself
She promised there was no other man
But after she put me on a shelf
I just don't give a damn
[Breakdown Chorus]
I've got my reasons
Got my reasons for walking away
I want to love you, but this kind of game I can't play
[Repeat Chorus]
