So a long for now
It was such a pleasant little stay
Goodbye for now
I'll be back later in the day
And I'll be singing
All we got to do (all we got to do)
Is sit here (is sit here)
There's nothing we can do (we can do)
Ho! Bright young men surround me
Looking for the future
I'm standing on the deepend
In this land of godsend
You're the reason for everything I say
You're the reason for every single day
I-I wish I had more to say
I'm sorry I always drift away
I-I wish I had more to do
I'm sorry but I love you
You could at least give me a smile
But never mind
You're so unkind
Nice young girls surround me
Looking for the right man
The bright times have left me
Since I took to my heels and ran
You're the reason for everything I say
You're the reason for every single day
You're the reason for everything I say
You're the reason for every single day
