Gimme just one more reason,
 Gimme one why you're leaving,
 Tell me now why I'm pleading,
 Look at my heart just bleeding
 
 On the doorstep I walked to,
 Many 'a time, I fought you,
 Many 'a fight, I lost to,
 
 You, you come prepared
 
 Gimme just one example,
 Gimme one proof or sample,
 Gimme the truth, I'll handle,
 Tell me who holds the candle
 Any other clown would crumble
 Any given down, he'd fumble
 Any given round, he'd stumble
 Over his tongue, I mumble
 
 But I, I come prepared
 And you ain't fighting fair
 
 [Chorus:]
 'Cause you toss your hair up 'round
 (Gimme just one good reason,
 My my my)
 And all my defenses fall down
 (Any other man would stumble,
 But not me)
 Yeah, you come and go as you please
 And I chase you 'round on my knees
 
 [Breakdown:]
 Let's forget us, let's forbid us,
 Stick a fork in us,
 Less is more with us,
 'Guess it's more than just
 Love is war,
 It sucks to be stuck in that morbid clutch
 
 But there are more unfortunate
 Folks that get stuck 'til the courts erupt
 By then I'll be sweet to the next
 Heartbreak,
 Heart-rate beat through my chest
 By then I'd be onto another
 Reason to write another song
 And another...
 By then I'd be onto another
 Reason to write another song
 
 [Chorus:]
 'Cause you toss your hair up 'round
 (Gimme just one good reason,
 My my my)
 And all my defenses fall down
 (Any other man would stumble,
 But not me)
 Yeah, you come and go as you please
 And I chase you 'round on my knees
