reba mcentire - never had a reason to lyrics

(tim nichols/mark d. sanders)
all the girls i grew i up with
got a husband house and kids
that's what everybody did after school
if i'd a had a steady boyfriend
i mighta stuck around like them but
back then i never had a reason to

l.a.'s like another planet
had to live there to understand it
i thought when i first landed california's cool
till i saw good girls gettin' outa control,
endin' up sellin' their souls
oh no i never had a reason to

never had a reason to stay
to not walk away
nobody's heart was gonna break over me
never had somethin' worth keepin'
or somebody i needed
like i'm needin' you
baby don't you see it's true
i never had a reason to believe in love

to some love comes as a vision
to some it's a sweet baptism
me and love had a head-on collision
when i ran into you
got some feelings i'm figurin' out
no i don't know exactly how
baby till now i never had a reason to

never had a reason to stay
to not walk away
nobody's heart was gonna break over me
never had somethin' worth keepin'
or somebody i needed
like i'm needin' you
baby don't you see it's true
i never had a reason to believe in love
