Paul Carrack - One Good Reason Lyrics






I stand on my ground when we fight
No matter where we are
I am the sad clown with tear eyes
So happy on your own
We get some strange looks when we shout
Clowning at the bar
It seems that I've hoped
Now I found a match from my own heart

Just give me one good reason baby
One good reason now
One good reason, I should
I should hang around

I often wonder how we look
In other people's eyes
Wild lovers, explosive
And right above these eyes
She stands on her own ground when we kiss
Poisoning my mind
I bet that I found my match
To strike it up tonight

Just give me one good reason baby
One good reason now
One good reason, I should
I should hang around

One good reason baby
One good reason now
One good reason, I should
I should hang around
I should hang around
(One good reason)

    I finally found this song..thank u thank u

  6. X.... H....

    I love Carrack's song "Don't Shed a Tear" which is itself a super underrated 80s pop song. I'm just hearing this one now and it's amazing too, judging by the really low views I can see how forgotten and rare it is

    X.... H....

    I only discovered this one by hearing it on Music Choice 80's.

    X.... H....

    @Ryan Mangin Today is my first time hearing it also. I only remember hearing Don't Shed A Tear back when it first came out.

  7. M.... B....

    pretty sure that is Nick Lowe on bass and Chris Difford on guitar?

    M.... B....

    You are correct.  Was thinking the same

    M.... B....

    Difford co-wrote this song with Carrack as well.

  8. M.... C....

    alright

  9. l.... ....

    I never knew that Paul Carrack's voice was the common denominator in many of my favorite songs of all time. I could listen to his voice forever.

  10. c.... 9....

    Dumb video...can the whore. Good song.

    c.... 9....

    i love the way she parts her hair though

  11. k.... ....

    Love the back up singer, anybody know who she is?

  12. r.... d....

    I think that is Linda Taylor. I might be wrong. Someone please verify who the woman in the video is.

  13. r.... d....

    I know the two guys are his Squeeze bandmates and I think the drummer is Peter Van Hook from Mike and the Mechanics, don't know who the woman is.

    r.... d....

    Just Chris Difford is of Squeeze. The other guitarist is Nick Lowe, who is not of Squeeze.

  14. M.... ....

    I know taste is subjective but this is the only good Paul Carrack song. I hate all the others. Just hate them. Name a good one and I will hate it.

    M.... ....

    Actually taste is not subjective, Some Music is actually bad, some music is actually good. People who use the word Subjective are people usually who lack good taste. Although not a Paul Carrack solo tune try The Living Years or How Long and try telling me they suck. Some people havent put in the work to develop good taste in music. It takes time

  15. R.... M....

    Anybody know who the female backup singer is?

  16. t.... m....

    chick reminds of a Playboy Playmate from the 90's. Petra Verkaik except for the boobs. wow.....

  17. F.... ....

    This guy couldn't carry Brian Johnsons lunchbox.

    F.... ....

    @Force15X Nor is he trying.Paul's no more a heavy metal singer then Brian's a pop singer.

    F.... ....

    Force15X Brian Johnson sux compared to Bon Scott

    F.... ....

    You're an idiot

  18. j.... R....

    Best Song EVER!

  19. B.... ....

    LOVE this song!!! Thanks for posting!

  20. A.... W....

    That spine-chilling harmony on "ONE GOOD REASONNNNNN!!" Wow!

    A.... W....

    Its super dope

  21. t.... m....

    The lady close resembles 1989 playmate Petra Verkaik.

  22. t.... m....

    Hadn't heard this in years. Love the intro....bam!

  23. V.... D....

    Great song. :)

  24. L.... M....

    Chris Difford of Squeeze wrote the lyrics for this.

  25. 6.... ....

    @Ishmael932 Not sure about Difford, but that is Nick Lowe.

  26. R.... S....

    Is it me, or is that Chris Difford of Squeeze on guitar and Nick Lowe on bass?
