Love Is the Reason

You came and knocked at my door
With words I heard once before
Just who you are is still unclear
Knowing one day you will leave
To my surprise and relief
Love was the reason you came here

Yeah, glad you came
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, came
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
You said love was the reason

Where can I start, where do I begin?
I feel the need to explain
I'll be the first to say life is good
But first let me tell you my pain

I've been around the world
Searching for love
And right before I came to my end
I can remember

You came and knocked at my door
(Oh, my door)
With words I heard once before
(Before)
Just who you are is still unclear
(Just tryin' to figure out)
Knowing one day you will leave
(Will leave)
To my surprise and relief
(Oh, relief)
Love was the reason you came here

This song I sing is no fairy tale
It's full of truth and it's real, my
I've made bad choices, I've made mistakes
Got no more time for cheap thrills

'Cause I've been around the world
Chasing true love
And right before I came to my end
I can remember

You came and knocked at my door
(Knock at my door)
With words I heard once before
(Oh, before)
Just who you are is still unclear
(So, I'm tryin' to figure out)
Knowing one day you will leave
(Oh, just tell me)
To my surprise and relief
(Relief)
Love was the reason you came here

And now, everything is so good
And right now, everything is just fine
And when I'm faced with troubles
I can always lean on you

You came and knocked at my door
(Love showed up at my door)
With words I heard once before
(Yeah, yeah)
Just who you are is still unclear
(Just tell me who you are)
Knowing one day you will leave
(Don't leave)
To my surprise and relief
(Say, love)
Love was the reason you came here

And now my life is good because of you
(Yeah, my life is good because of you)
You've changed my world and made it new
(Changed my world and made it new)
(Reason, tell them the reason)
And now I know it's true
'Cause love was the reason you came here
(Thank you, Deborah, say)

And now
(You came and knocked at my door)
(My life, my life)
My life is good because of you
(Just who you are is still unclear)
(My life is good, yes, feels good)
You've changed my world and made it new
(Changed my world and made it new, hey)
(Knowing one day you will leave)
And now I know it's true
(Oh, love, love is the reason)
'Cause love was the reason you came here
(Hey, so, don't ever leave)

And now
(You came and knocked at my door)
(I need you now)
My life is good because of you
(Don't ever go)
(Just who you are is still unclear)
(Don't go away)
You've changed my world and made it new
(Knowing one day you will leave)
(Oh, love, oh, love)
And now I know it's true
'Cause love was the reason you came here
(Love is the reason, what more can I say?)

And now
(You came and knocked at my door)
(Yeah, life is good)
My life is good because of you
(Just who you are is still unclear)
(Just because of you, yes, it is)
You've changed my world and made it new
(Hey, change my world)
(Knowing one day you will leave)
And now I know it's true
(Tell me the reason)
'Cause love was the reason you came here
(I'm outta here)

And now, my life is good because of you
You've changed my world and made it new
And now I know it's true
'Cause love was the reason you came here
