The Only Reason Why

words and music by Linda S. Hampton and Richard Melvin Brown (socan)


The breath of a rose, you’re the dawn that lights my sky,
Heaven surely knows, you’re the only reason why…

My soul is a whirl of color,
I’m your captive butterfly.
It’s just because I love you,
You’re the only reason why.

My heart is a trembling leaf;
Flutters when you pass me by.
It’s just because I love you,
You’re the only reason why.

Circumstance, or happenstance,
You permeate each breath I breathe,
So intense; won’t blow this chance,
And suffocate loves tender seed.
I come to you with no motive,
No false pretense, no alibi.
Share a cup of love devoted,
You’re the only reason why.

My soul is a flame of joy,
Pirouettes to catch your eye,
It’s just because I love you,
You’re the only reason why.

Circumstance, or happenstance,
You permeate each breath I breathe,
So intense; won’t blow this chance,
And suffocate loves tender seed.
I come to you with no motive,
No false pretense, no alibi.
Share a cup of love devoted,
Girl, you’re the only reason why.
