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:
