Ain’t No Reason - Brett Dennen

There ain’t no reason things are this way
Its how they always been and they intend to stay
I can’t explain why we live this way, we do it everyday
Preachers on the podium speakin’ of saints in seance
Prophets on the sidewalk beggin’ for change
Old ladies laughing from the fire escape, cursing my name
I got a basket full of lemons and they all taste the same
A window and a pigeon with a broken wing
You can spend your whole life workin’ for something

There Ain’t no reason things are this way
It’s how they always been and they intend to stay
I don’t know why I say the things I say, but I say them anyway
But love will come set me free
Love will come set me free,I do believe
Love will come set me free, I know it will
Love will come set me free, yes

Love will come set me free
Love will come set me free, I do believe
Love will come set me free, I know it will
Love will come set me free, yes
There ain’t no reason things are this way
It’s how they always been and they intend to stay
I can’t explain why we live this way, we do it everyday
