Find a Reason- words & music by C.P. James

You can always find a reason
Not to chase the dream you’re dreaming
Wait until tomorrow
Let another day pass you dying

You could always stop believing
Give up all the dreams you’re seeing
Slave until tomorrow
Let another day leave you crying

But you will always find it trouble
To go to sleep when the sun goes down
‘Cause dreams come back around
And won’t let you go

I swear it's so
Takes one to know
Just how low you can go

Comes a time
When just a straw breaks bone
When water wears a hole through

Comes a day the sun shines
You look up at the blue sky
Wonder how you stayed blind
For so, so long

I swear it’s so
Takes one to know
Just how low you can go

You can always find a reason
Not to chase the dream you’re dreaming
Wait until tomorrow
Let another day pass you dying

You could always stop believing
Give up all the dreams you’re seeing
Slave until tomorrow
Let another day leave you crying

But you will always find it trouble
To go to sleep when the sun goes down
‘Cause dreams come back around
And won’t let you go

I swear it's so
Takes one to know
Just how low you can go
