reason i go

durbin, james

first class was a pleasure

i have to admit it

my body and wreckage from all that i gave

for a moment a memory may stick with you

what i do

i only hold space for the moments you save

i'm lost in this hotel

deep in this shiver

i gave them all heart and yet paid for it still

landscape packed for delivery

twelve hours to stop till we do it then

fly me from boston to dc to nashville

nashville to dallas and new mexico

i can't tell you the miles

the numbers don't matter

the things that i do is the reason i go

just bridges and terminals

windows and aisle seats

sendin' my thoughts in the millions of ways

throw me around and you'll leave me for hours

feels like i've been gone for some weeks

not days

my father was fire

he couldn't be handled

burned out before he could ever explode

my babies are everything to me that matters

i know that your daddy never wants to leave home

the thing that i do is the reason i go

fly me from boston to dc to nashville

nashville to dallas and new mexico

i can't tell you the miles

the numbers don't matter

the things that i do is the reason i go

packed up and unpacked

the kiss you've been missin' too much

i hold regrets but i'll never lose hope

one day we'll ride up and my loves will be there

the reason they are'll be the reason i go

fly me from boston to dc to nashville

nashville to dallas and new mexico

i can't tell you the miles

the numbers don't matter

the things that i do is the reason i go

i can't tell you the miles

the numbers don't matter

the things that i do is the reason i go

the things that i do is the reason i go
