No Reasoning
Music and lyrics by Sarah Jane Scouten
Arrangement by Sarah Jane Scouten and the Brilliant String Band
The Cape (2014)
There's no reasoning with my heart
Wish I could blame the way I feel on you
But you're a drunk who thinks he's pretty
I should have took one look, turned tail and run
Chorus:
But I've got a thing for you, although I need you like a kick in the shins
Oh I've got a thing for you
I don't know how it started, but I know how it ends
How it ends, how it ends, how it ends
Well I thought James Dean was sexy
With chip on his shoulder like a cinder block
And I should have had an inkling
The way you strut your stuff like a peacock
Chorus
Now I'm an honest woman
I don't drink or smoke or fight... too much
But your cowboy boots excite me
You're not a rockstar you just act like one
Chorus
Bridge
Sitting in my lonesome room with no one to enjoy
What's a poor girl gonna do when she likes bad boys?
Well there's no reasoning with my heart
Wish I could stop the way I dream about you
'Cause I'm smart and should know better
Than to fall in love with a son of a bitch like you
Chorus
How it ends, how it ends, how it...
