If It Wasn't For The Reason That I Love You (Cook/greenaway) lyrics

Another day gone and I think of you
Wonder where you're goin', wonder what you do, without me
A telephone call from a friend I know
Left me feelin' bitter, left me feelin' so unhappy

'Cause if you couldn't wait for 24 hours
What good would telegrams and flowers do?
If it wasn't for the reason that I love you, baby
I wouldn't have another thing to say to you

Might as well stay for a day or two
Find another friend and have a drink or two to pass the time
Talkin' over troubles in a whisky daze
A little drop of cognac helps a man to face the lonely times

'Cause it's sad being home and I've given up tryin'
I've got no lyin' that I wanna do
If it wasn't for the reason that I love you, baby
I wouldn't have another thing to say to you

break

Wish I could find a way, wake up the words to say
You cheated and you lied, you took away the little pride that I had inside
If it wasn't for the reason that I love you, baby
I wouldn't have another thing to say to you

Another day gone and I think of you
Wonder where you're goin', wonder what to do, without me
A telephone call from a friend I know
Left me feelin' bitter, left me feelin' so unhappy
Might as well stay for a day or two
Find another friend and have a drink or two to pass the time
Talkin' over troubles in a whisky daze
A little drop of cognac helps a man to face
