lyrics

Give Me A Reason
(Words and music by Allan Dawson)

I see you, you're looking away.
You don't wanna see me you don't wanna say "Hey!"
I'm looking through you, you're not really there.
There's something going on in your head somewhere
What does it take to turn your head?
Tell me what it takes to win you.

You won't give it to me,
You won't take it from me,
You won't even try.

Give me a reason why you're pushing me away,
Give me a reason why you're pushing me away,
Give me a reason why you're pushing me, you're pushing me away.

Fierce fisted ignorance is ten to the dozen,
Answers on a postcard, please, I don't want to know.
I'm hot with your arrogance, like I'm sat in an oven,
"All I want to do..." is everywhere I go.
What does it take to turn your head?
Tell me what it takes to win you.

You won't give it to me,
You won't take it from me,
You won't even try.

Give me a reason why you're pushing me away,
Give me a reason why you're pushing me away,
Give me a reason why you're pushing me, you're pushing me away.

You've lost your hunger,
And I've lost my taste.
You've lost your memories,
Of that time and place.

Give me a reason why you're pushing me away,
Give me a reason why you're pushing me away,
Give me a reason why you're pushing me, you're pushing me away.
