I got to have a reason
 I got to have a reason why
 You're walkin' out on me

 There's somethin' on your mind
 But you won't tell me
 Mmm, tell me why you're cryin'
 And I will help you, help you, help you

 But I gotta have a reason
 I got to have a reason
 I got to have a reason why
 You're walkin' out on me

 If there is someone else
 Then I would like to know
 But you know I'm never ever gonna find out
 If you won't tell me, tell me, tell me

 But I gotta have a reason
 I got to have a reason
 I got to have a reason why
 You're walkin' out on me

 If you tell me what you're thinkin'
 Everything will be all right (everything will be all right)
 Love will never leave your side (love will never leave your side)
 If you place your trust in me

 I got to have a reason
 I got to have a reason
 I got to have a reason why
 You're walkin' out on me

 I got to have a reason
 I got to have a reason
