Give Me One Reason by Tracy Chapman

Give me one reason to stay here and I'll turn right back around
Give me one reason to stay here and I'll turn right back around
Said I don't wanna leave you lonely
You got to make me change my mind

Baby I got your number and I know that you got mine
You know that I called you I called too many times
You can call me baby
You can call me anytime, but you got to call me

Give me one reason to stay here and I'll turn right back around
(You can see me turnin')
Give me one reason to stay here and I'll turn right back around
(You can see me turnin')
Said I don't wanna leave you lonely
You got to make me change my mind

I don't want no one to squeeze me
They might take away my life
I don't want no one to squeeze me
They might take away my life
I just want someone to hold me
Oh, and rock me through the night

This youthful heart can love you, yes, and give what you need
I said this youthful heart can love you, oh, and give what you need
But I'm too old to go chasing you around wasting my precious energy

Give me one reason to stay here, yes, and I'll turn right back around
(You can see me turnin')
Give me one reason to stay here, whoa, and I'll turn right back around
(You can see me turnin')
Said I don't wanna leave you lonely
You got to make me change my mind

Baby just gives me one reason
Oh, just give me just one reason why
Baby just gives me one reason
Oh, just give me just one reason why I should stay
Said I told you that I loved you and there ain't no more to say
