I never had a reason to doubt you.
You were always true and tough,
But sometimes, when I’m dreaming about you,
I’m sure I can’t be good enough.
I never had to struggle without you:
You stood beside me every day.
I never had a reason to doubt you,
But I guess I did it anyway.
I never had a reason to hurt you.
Babe, I never thought I would.
Sometimes meaning well is a virtue.
Other times it does no good.
The bitterbones who tried to alert you
Were wiser than I care to say.
I never had a reason to hurt you,
But I guess I did it anyway.
You never had a reason to love me,
Gliding over wayward land,
Flying crazy cartwheels above me,
Then you came and took my hand.
You seemed to see the truest part of me,
Undaunted by this cheap display.
You never had a reason to love me,
But I guess you did it anyway.
You never had a reason to love me,
I'm so glad you did it anyway.
