If It Wasn't for the Reason That I Love You

Another day gone and I think of you Wonder where you're going Wonder what you do Without me A telephone call from a friend I know Left me feeling bitter Left me feeling so unhappy 'Cos if you couldn't wait for twenty four hours What good would telegrams and flowers do? If it wasn't for the reason that I love you, baby I wouldn't have another thing to say to you Might as well stay For a day or two Find another friend And have a drink or two To pass the time Talking over troubles In a whiskey daze A little drop of cognac Helps a man to face the lonely times 'Cause it's sad being home and I've given up trying I've got no lyin' that I wanna do If it wasn't for the reason that I love you, baby I wouldn't have another thing to say to you Wish I could find a way Work out the nerve to say "You cheated and you lied You took away the little pride I had inside" If it wasn't for the reason that I love you, baby I wouldn't have another thing to say to you Another day gone and I think of you Wonder where you're going Wonder what you do Without me A telephone call from a friend I know Left me feeling bitter Left me feeling so unhappy Might as well stay For a day or two Find another friend And have a drink or two To pass the time Talking over troubles In a whiskey daze A little drop of cognac Helps a man to face the lonely times
