Nothing ventured nothing gained

Tired and washed out by the pain

Do we share this problem, will it slip away ?

Or do we fight another day ?

Was I looking for a friend ?

One I count on ïtill the end

Is there something that I didnït do ?

Does it all begin with you ?



CHORUS

So how did I, Oh I

Give you reason ?

But how did I, Oh I

Give you reason ?



After all the fallen tears

When we wake the taken dream

Who let the water slowly draw away ?

All the colours that we made



CHORUS



To give you reason, to change the riverïs flow

To give you reason, to point the bone

To give you reason, go set your spirit free

I donït know, I donït know why



Is there nothing I can say ?

Is there nothing I can do, girl ?

Didnït mean to break your life

Didnït mean to burn your world, no



CHORUS



You can keep the silver band

You can have the memories, girl

Now as 'Pilate' cleans the hands

Itïs no more to do with me, no



CHORUS



So how did I, Oh I

Give you reason ?

Let the voice of reason say:
