100 reasons vs 1 reason

You used to love me and sincerely bounded.

You used to care about me, and were never far away.

But today the good times we had seem to be fading away.

Why you want to leave me today?

I’ve tried my hardest to stop you. I want you to understand how I’m feeling.

With my two tired and weak hands I’m trying to keep you here.

My heart is destroyed, I’m begging you.

Kill me, but don’t just walk away from me.

Without you it’s like my heart has died.

I’m pleading with you to listen to me just this once.

Maybe you’ve got 100 reasons why you want to go.

But I’ve only got one reason to make you stay.

Listen to my heart, and you’ll know.

That one reason is that I love you.

The reason that I am alive is because I love you.
