Ultimate Reason
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I had no life
I had no love
I was a bug
I had no mirror
Wore dirty clothes
Over and over
The day I saw her
My mind was set
I'll never forget
I have not failed her yet
I've got a reason now to live
That love
She's right here beside me
We're high up above
I've got a reason now to live
That love
Oh, I've got a reason
It's the ultimate
Ooh, it's the ultimate love
I had to close the distance that
Lay between us
I had a plan that we elope
Upon the "Jaws of death"
And with the roaring sea below
With God as our witness
It all began to hit us
I began to take in
The magical island intoxication
I've got a reason now to live
That love
She's right here beside me
We're high up above
Oh, I've got a reason now to live
That love
Oh, I've got a reason
It's the ultimate
Yeah, it's the ultimate
That love
