One Thousand Reasons

Should you let the chance slip
To see it crack
As it hits the floor?
You can't hold on to it
And hang on to what you had before
Decisions hang in the air
You leave them swinging
Back and forth

One thousand reasons to stay
One thousand reasons to come away
One thousand reasons to hold on to
What you have got in this life anyway
I push for what I really want
So it moves away from me
It's like you've set your heart on ice
And set a date when you'll melt it free
Everything you really feel
Will remain a mystery
One thousand reasons to stay
One thousand reasons to come away
One thousand reasons to hold on to
What you have got in this world anyway
One thousand reasons to stay
One thousand reasons to come away
Come away
One thousand reasons to hold on to
What you have got in this life
Anyway
