Songtexte: Janet Gabriel. Give me a reason.

Give me a reason --- Janet Gabriel

I was giving you all you were frontin'
Saying that you don't need me then braggin'
To your friends that we've got something going'
Letting them know that you're in control
Then I found out just what you were doin'
And now I know the way that you're thinkin'
Now it's time that I asked you a question
What would you choose, my love or your pride

Take your time, think it thru' tll the truth
And you can decide what you want to do
Pick your words carefully make no mistake
Choose or lose now before it's to late!

Chorus,

You've gotta give ne a reason
For me to hang around
When all you do is hurt me
And try to bring me down

You've gotta give me a reason
For me to stay with you
When this love's not workin'
And you can't see it thru'


All I want is a little respectin'
And I don't think that's too much expectin'
Did you think you could hurt me for nothin'
Figure it out or you will miss out
Are you strong as to make a decision
Now that you understand my position

Make it right now or don't u know how
Do you think you can walk over me?
I'm better than that
You just dont see
Give me a reason why I shouldn't leave
Prove to me now make me believe

Chorus
You've gotta give ne a reason

For me to hang around
When all you do is hurt me
And try to bring me down

You've gotta give me a reason
For me to stay with you
When this love's not workin'
And you can't see it thru'

Spoken: It's not right...

You want me to hang around
And let you bring me down
Want me to stay with you
When you can see this thru'
You want me to hang around
And let you bring me down

No no no no

You want me to hang around
And let you bring me down
Want me to stay with you
When you can see this thru'
You want me to hang around
And let you bring me down

Chorus

You've gotta give ne a reason
For me to hang around
When all you do is hurt me
And try to bring me down

You've gotta give me a reason
For me to stay with you
When this love's not workin'
And you can't see it thru'
