Peter Frampton
One Good Reason
[Verse 1]
As we travel down this desperate road
We come upon a great divide
I reach out to grab a hold
But you say I've got nothing to hang onto
[Verse 2]
As we wander through these dead-end halls
We come across a creeping vine
In my attempt to scale the walls
Well you say I've got no leg to stand on
[Chorus]
(Well) While I'm down on my knees yeah
Give me one good reason
Well I'm beggin', and I'm pleadin'
Give me one good reason
Why, if there're changes, in the seasons
Give me one good reason why you and I won't make a change
[Verse 3]
We've run the course and paid the price
For true love and its pot of gold
A fortune lost with treasured lies
When you say I've got nothin' to bank on
[Chorus]
(Well) While I'm down on my knees yeah
Give me one good reason
Well I'm beggin', and I'm pleadin'
Give me one good reason
Why, if there're changes, in the seasons
Give me one good reason why you and I won't make a change
[Bridge]
Don't bring the curtain down on me
Don't bring the curtain down on me
We've rehearsed these lines, but we've lost our place
It's a shame, we won't change
[Verse 4]
As we cast ourselves into the sea
We run into a tangled line
I reach out to set you free
But you say I've left you shipwrecked and stranded
[Chorus]
(Well) While I'm down on my knees yeah
Give me one good reason
Well I'm beggin', and I'm pleadin'
Give me one good reason
Why, if there're changes, in the seasons
Give me one good reason why you and I won't make a chaaange
While I'm down on my knees yeah
Give me one good reason
Well I'm beggin', and I'm pleadin'
Give me one good reason
Why, if there're changes, in the seasons
Give me one good reason why you and I won't make a chaaange
[Outro]
'Cause if I got what you're needin'
Give me one good reason why you and I won't make a change
Don't bring the curtain down on me
