I Need a Reason Lyrics

If I could learn to sing my voice would soar like a bird's.
If we could learn to love we could find it's what we prefer to hating.

I need what everybody needs:
I need a reason to believe I'm not alone in the world.

If we could hold our tongues, we'd finally have something to say.
If we could lose control, we might start to get it our way.

I bet you wanna know what everybody needs.
I'll tell you: We need a reason to believe we're not alone in the world.

If we could read the news, we'd wake from our ignorant bliss
and if we sit in pews we'd learn how to love and assist and not hate.

I need what everybody needs:
I need a reason to believe we're not alone in the world.
We will be loved by a boy or a girl.
Our change is coming - oh wait,
It might unravel the day.

Ba-dia-haaa-ohhhhhh-ohhhhhhh-ohhhhhhh :)
