Karaoké That's Why I'm Here James Taylor

Person to person and man to man

I'm back in touch with my long lost friend

Listen to reason and understand

Think of me from way back when

He said Me and Melissa well we fell out of love

We ran out of luck

Seems like lightning struck

I've been thinking of leaving but I can't raise a buck

James I'm wondering could I borrow your truck, I said

That's why I'm here

Got no better reason

That's why I'm standing before you

That's why I'm here

John's gone, found dead

He dies high, he's brown bread

Later said to have drowned in his bed

After the laughter

The wave of dread it hits us like a ton of lead

It seems learn not to burn means to turn on a dime

Walk on if you're walking even if it's an uphill climb

Try to remember that working's no crime

Just don't let 'em take and waste your time

That's why I'm here

There'll be no more messes tonight

That's why I'm here

Oh that's why I'm here

This is an IOU

I reckon I owe you one now

Listen Wendy and listen Glory

This'll be better tomorrow

Oh fortune and fame's such a curious game

Perfect strangers can call you by name

Pay good money to hear fire and rain again and again and again

Woah some are like summer coming back every year

Got your baby, got your blanket

Got your bucket of beer

I break into a grin from ear to ear

Suddenly it's perfectly clear

That's why I'm here

Singing tonight tomorrow and everyday

That's why I'm standing

Oh that's why I'm here

This is the part about

Kitty and Bim

He loved her and she loved him

Wake 'em up, shake 'em up the middle of the night

Got to tell me everything's alright

I said

That's why I'm here

Got me walking and talking like a natural man

That's why I'm here

That's why I'm here

That's right
