You Are The 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.
Well you are the reason there's tears in my eyes
You and your heart and your lies
Well you make the nights seem oh so long
I haven't slept a wink baby since you've been gone
I was a fool it's plain to see you never really ever cared for me
Just when I was used to loving you then you went away left me oh so blue
Well you are the cause of this hurt in my heart
Pain and the mis'ry since we've been apart
[ guitar ]
Well you are the reason there's tears in my eyes...
I was a fool it's plain to see...
Well you are the cause...
