Nickel Creek - Reasons Why Lyrics






Where am I today? I wish that I knew
'Cause looking around there's no sign of you
I don't remember one jump or one leap
Just quiet steps away from your lead

I'm holding my heart out but clutching it too
Feeling this short of a love that we once knew
I'm calling this home when it's not even close
Playing the role with nerves left exposed

Standing on a darkened stage, stumbling through the lines
Others have excuses, but I have my reasons why

We get distracted by dreams of our own
But nobody's happy while feeling alone
And knowing how hard it hurts when we fall
We lean another ladder against the wrong wall

And climb high to the highest rung, to shake fists at the sky
While others have excuses, I have my reasons why

[Bridge:]
With so much deception it's hard not to wander away
It's hard not to wander away
It's hard not to wander away

    I sang this back in high school with my cousin while he played guitar. I can't believe I'm going to be 30 this month. Still my favorite band. Has been since I was a kid- one of their songs was on my senior page in my yearbook.

    This band is criminally underknown

    It doesn’t help that they’re no longer together. Chris has Punch Brothers, also criminally unknown, and Live From Here, and Sara has I’m With Her with Aoife O’ Donovan and Sarah Jarosz. You can catch them all frequently on Live From Here, the very best music show currently on the planet. It’s available via free subscription on YouTube every weekend.
