[Verse One] Cryin' lily-of-the-valley tears in my bedroom My innocence was strippin' me Of what I thought I wanted What I thought I wanted [Verse Two] Listen to those love-story tunes in my bedroom Mad at God; he didn't give me The things I thought I wanted What I thought I wanted [Pre-chorus] But then you came along And my heart started thumpin' Oh you came along Then you left me with nothin' [Chorus] You are the why You are the reason why Love songs never tremble off my lips You are the reason You are the why To faith I hold tight And shut my heart to any whispers Close myself to a deeper stirrin' Wait till I have more discernment You are the why And you are the reason Oh you are the reason And you are the why I don't long for things forbidden [Verse Three] I've been livin' a bit more than a year now Really livin' now in God's prescense I'm happy yours is gone Oh I'm happy yours is gone [Verse Four] I was chasin' after the fantasy A million other girls are chasin' after It don't align with reality No amount of tears gon' make it happen Count the cost and take a leave Call me back when your love is real Take all your smiles with a pill And if you pass the test then With us be God's will Still [Chorus] You are the why You are the reason why Love songs never tremble off my lips You are the reason You are the why To faith I hold tight And shut my heart to any whispers Close myself to a deeper stirrin' Wait till I have more discernment You are the why And you are the reason Oh you are the reason And you are the why I don't long for things forbidden [Bridge] You are the reason You are the why I don't wait for someone To slip their hand in mine The dreams that I had In dreamland, they're fine But they don't come into real life [Chorus] You are the why You are the reason why Love songs never tremble off my lips You are the reason You are the why To faith I hold tight And shut my heart to any whispers Close myself to a deeper stirrin' Wait till I have more discernment You are the why And you are the reason Oh you are the reason And you are the why I don't long for things forbidden [Verse 5] Listen I love the idea of a lover Listen I hope one day I'll find one But my hope's not in that alone I rest in God alone I won't give myself away I am a lily-of-the-valley And the Lord is making me Who he wants me to be
