No Reason To Stay © John Johns 2009

I would leave here tomorrow if there was somewhere else to go * If I’ve learned something new it’s just that there’s nothing new to know * If you sow what you’ll reap - then I guess I’m just reaping what I sow *

CHORUS
So take a day - take an hour - take a year * I don’t care * If you hang around this old town * Anytime you’ll find me here * I’m Goin’ nowhere * But I’ll keep on believing - some day I’m leaving - Goin’ somewhere *

I’ve said that I’m leaving - got no reason to stay * And if I meant what I said I’d be headed down that road today * But when you say what you mean you don’t always mean you mean what you say *

CHORUS *

If I choose doing nothing - it’s just that there’s nothing here to choose * And if I’m losing nothing - it’s just that there’s nothing here to loose * No good-days no goodbyes no good news *

CHORUS *

I see the same old places and the same old faces every day * The same old tavern and the same old card games we play * And I keep on asking for one good reason to stay *

CHORUS * Repeat last line
