Every man needs a reason To get up in the morning and shave He needs an incentive And not just a promotion With more pain He needs someone to stand by him To keep his mind from leaving I need the same thing too I need you to be my reason I need you to be All of everything to me To let me know I am alive Without you by my side I might as well lay down and die I don't want to just exist And ever I taste your kiss Oh, And keep on breathing No one else will do I need you to be my reason Every woman needs a reason To paint her lips and do her hair
She needs him to notice She'll get the feeling he don't care Someone to send her roses And everyone knows they're out of season I need the same thing too I need you to be my reason I need you to be, All of everything to me To let me know I am alive Without you by my side I might as well lay down and die I don't want to just exist And ever I taste your kiss Oh, And keep on breathing No one else will do I need you to be my reason No one else on earth will do I want you to be my reason
