Lyrics: A.a. Bondy. There's A Reason.

and i gave my hand to the fates
and they took me 'round
they showed me the seven wonders, the sights, and the sounds

there was a man with cinders for eyes
there was a girl with a dress made of flies
there's a reason
there's a reason

and it's love that's tearing them down
and it's love that turns them around
and say it is so

and the bar room is filled with the joy of making old friends
and jukebox girls trip the light
they wheel and they bend

blind joe, he's feelin' more pain
and sweet georgia, she dreams of the rain
and there's a reason
there's a reason

and it's love that's tearing them down
and it's love that will turn them around
and say it is so

when the moon follows you, will you go
and you cannot hide
and when voices of doom ring your ears
and horsemen do ride
may tomorrow the land be anew
may every bird sing unto you
and that's the reason
that's the reason

that the love that's tearing you down
is the love that will turn you around
that the love that's tearing you down
is the love that will turn you around
and say it is so
