Ken Hensley - Give Me a Reason

I was downtown drinking with the boys
All of a sudden coming out of the noise
One of my so-called friends
About ruined the night

Told me you've been seen around
Told me you've been playing the town
Seemingly without respect
For the fact that you're mine

If you think you're coming back to me
You're adding insult to injury
You better try your luck some other day

When you can give me a reason, give me a reason
Give me a reason - a reason to stay
Give me a reason to stay

The more I realise the more it hurts
You're out there acting like some smalltown flirt
Telling me you're spending your nights
Dreaming of me

You're asking me to overlook
Asking me to let you off the hook
Well obviously that's not the way it's gonna be

You're so busy making up my mind
I'm gonna do it in my own sweet time
Come back, baby, when you've got
Something better to say

When you can give me a reason, give me a reason
Give me a reason - a reason to stay
Give me a reason to stay
