[Intro - smoky electric guitar riff; brushed drums; female voice enters intimately] Verse 1 Maybe I’m old-fashioned In a world that trades love in But I still wear this weddin’ band ‘Cause I said, “I do” to my best friend I’ve seen some married friends of mine Chasin’ sparks on the down-low But I’ve got fire in my bedroom And he knows how to make it glow Pre-Chorus ‘Cause there’s passion in his actions Heat when our eyes meet A connection with affection Two hearts, one beat Chorus He gives me no reason to roam My come-and-get-me cyclone With a fever in his fingertips And that trouble in his lips He can turn one look into a flame And I’m ready for those late-night games I’d be crazy not to stay at home Ain’t no reason to roam (Ain’t no reason to roam) Verse 2 Ain’t no ball and chain thing He’s the man I choose every day Knows when I need him to hold me close And when to give me space Sunday morning in his T-shirt Coffee and that sleepy smile Come Monday, dressed up for success Still makes me stop and stare awhile Pre-Chorus ‘Cause there’s passion in his actions Heat when our eyes meet A connection with affection Two hearts, one beat Chorus He gives me no reason to roam My come-and-get-me cyclone With a fever in his fingertips And that trouble in his lips He can turn one look into a flame And I’m ready for those late-night games I’d be crazy not to stay at home Ain’t no reason to roam Bridge - pull the instrumentation back; smoky vocal, then build He could’ve stepped out of a magazine But he’s even better here with me He’s my real-life fantasy And after all these years He still gets to me Chorus - full blues-country groove; bigger vocal; gritty emphasis He gives me no reason to roam My come-and-get-me cyclone With a fever in his fingertips And that trouble in his lips He can turn one look into a flame And I’m ready for those late-night games I’d be crazy not to stay at home Ain’t no reason to roam (Ain’t no reason to roam) Outro - stripped back; smoky vocal over bluesy guitar Yeah, there’s passion in his actions Heat when our eyes meet A connection with affection Two hearts, one beat… No reason to roam (No reason to roam) No reason to roam…
