Dawes - For No Good Reason Lyrics
A little girl sinks down in the deep end
and looks up towards the sky,
and through a little blue world of legs
and her feet that look like their in flight
in a slow motion dance while the water expands
she just has to pretend she can hear the music
When she starts crying in her goggles
the scene becomes unclear
but she keeps peering into this underworld
through the filter of her tears
which let her keep hold of the moment
as if it was a souvenir
she just has to pretend she knows how to use it
Maybe it's her ancient past life memories come
Maybe it's a chemical that got into her eye
Or maybe it's for no good reason at all
Maybe it's for no good reason at all
His wife asked "How were things at work today?"
as Bill walked through the door
and put his coat on the chair and his keys on the table
and his eyes down on the floor,
and he tightened his jaws and he thought of the cause
and effects weren't clear anymore,
figuring out how to say what's wrong
He said "I know that I'll be leaving you,
that's all I really know,
but I wish I could tell what exactly compels
me to turn my steps and go,
because there's so much love that you've given me,
and so much love that I owe,
it's with myself that I can't seem to get along"
Or maybe he just felt the hungry hand of fate
Maybe he won't rest until he's seen it fall
Maybe it's that mood that he's in just for the day
Or maybe it's for no good reason at all
Maybe it's for no good reason at all
An actor was found dead today in his Culver city home,
and with no evidence of foul play it seemed he'd acted on his own,
the position of his body looked like he was reaching for the phone,
makes you wonder who he was gonna call
Maybe all his demons were settling their debts
Or maybe all the pressure finally drove him to the wall
Maybe there were secrets that he needed to protect
Or maybe it's for no good reason at all
Maybe it's for no good reason,
no good reason, no good reason at all

Dawes For No Good Reason Comments
Amazing. So beautifully written and delivered!
Beautiful song...every phrase loaded.
Fantastic!
looks like CFM. it's not a Dreadnought. is it a 000? no matter - chord voicing never disappoints. ....and that walkdown
Simpson
Another great song!
Another great song!
Wow this is amazing, i seen Dawes 2 nights ago in Glasgow and I'm still buzzing from it. Not many better bands in my opinion.
Dude could recite the yellow pages and it would be a hit.
My favorite thing is the lyric clam in the second verse. This is on of my favorite songs of all time now.
Lyric clam?
Kind of an amazing save in the moment, actually. He is truly a brilliant human being, and an artist to his core.
Devastating
that walk-down in the chorus is awesome
I hated that I heard so many complaints for this album. when they first streamed it, it was that same beautiful and touching songwriting there always was but with just some new sounds. this video just further proves it.
Agreed. This is actually quickly becoming my favorite album of theirs. I love that they took a risk in changing their sound. Even Dawes fans who don't like the direction the band took with this album should appreciate that all great bands need to evolve.
Zion Rodman
just saw Taylor play "One of Us" solo acoustic and it was perfect.
I was guilty of this, initially. I was so, so wrong
Taylor Goldsmith lyrics are some of the best being written today. Dawes never disappoints.
Yep, bingo, you nailed it.
Agreed, so well written!
A true wordsmith, a poet
Dawes is so damn good
Awesome
Incredible
Wow! Never heard of Dawes, definitely checking them (him?) out!
Check out The Basement Tapes with Taylor Goldsmith, Elvis Costello, Marcus Mumford, Jim James, and a bunch of other people doing some never released Bob Dylan songs
IMO the greatest Dawes song u can listen to is A Little Bit Of Everything... such beautiful songwriting....
Yeah it really is tough to beat A Little Bit of Everything. I will never forget the exact moment I first heard it. We were on our way to adopt a new dog, our last dog had recently passed away of an illness, so when that "it's the death of my first dog" part came over, I just lost it. And then I could after many listens appreciate what an unbelievably great song this was. I was hooked on Dawes from that point forward, been to a couple of concerts, we're just really lucky to have Taylor Goldsmith and the whole band.
check out It Happens
The first Dawes video, I saw, "When My Time Comes" didn't do it for me. .Weeks later, on the hottest night of the summer, I couldn't sleep, so I checked out "All Your Favorite Bands (Official Video)". I've been hooked ever since.
Yes! Dawes is amazing!
