Give Me a Reason
Give me a reason
By Michelle Morris

Give me a reason to believe you
That this is the honest truth
No lies disguised with a smile
Not a character storyline you use
Give me a reason to trust you
That this time will be different
No overstepping boundaries
Taking advantage of my kindness
Give me a reason to have hope
That we can make it work
That you aren't playing a game
Where the chessboard is in your head
Give me a reason to have love
To keep holding it close to my heart
Instead of letting it fly free forever
Into the Universe filled with stars
