| Written：Carly Simon/Danny Kortchmar | |
| The reason I wouldn't kiss you last night | |
| I wouldn;t kiss you 'cause I was afriad | |
| That I'd like you too much | |
| And if I liked you too much | |
| I'd be afraid that I'd give you a present | |
| And if I gave you a gift, | |
| You might give me a gift | |
| And then I'd be afraid... | |
| That I wouldn't like it | |
| [Chorus:] | |
| The reason, there's always a reason | |
| Behind the reason | |
| When you look for a reason | |
| A reason, I can give you a reason | |
| And maybe you'll think | |
| It's a really good reason | |
| But I come up with the reasons | |
| You asked me if I'd scratch your back | |
| I wouldn't scratch it | |
| 'Cause I was afraid that I'd twist your arm | |
| And if I twisted your arm | |
| I'd be afraid that it would lead to passion | |
| And if we got too drunk | |
| We might fall out of the bunk | |
| And then I;d be afriad | |
| We would have a concussion | |
| [Chorus] | |
| Don't ever live with your real love | |
| Stop before it starts | |
| Real love will last much longer | |
| Stay stronger | |
| Living in your heart | |
| Yeah, that's where it belongs, in your heart | |
| The reason, there's always a reason | |
| Behind the reason | |
| When you look for the reason | |
| The reason, I can give you a reason | |
| And maybe you'll think | |
| It's a really good reason | |
| But I come up with the reason | |
| I'll never have another chance | |
| At the Parson's dance | |
| (He's gonna spank me) | |
| Gotta be an apple tree growing in the field | |
| Gotta be at Frankie's house right now | |
| Gotta be at Danny's house deja | |
| Gotta meet a holy man | |
| He'll be in the valley when Amelia tries to land | |
| (With his shirt off) | |
| I can never be in love, I can only be in heat | |
| And I never felt so...never felt so... | |
| Never felt so... | |
| Hot |
