Lyrics Love Is the Reason - Arthur Schwartz
I've
been
away,
been
away,
been
away
too
long
And
I've
been
gone,
gone
twenty
seven
days,
haven't
been
so
strong
I
got
some
bad
blood
rushing
through
my
veins
as
it
rots
my
bones
Now
the
lone,
lone
devil
on
my
shoulder
says
my
love
is
gone
There
must
be
something
in
the
way,
cause
it
won't
come
back
I
ain't
got
one
thing
I
could
say,
I
could
say
no
more
I
made
my
way,
made
my
way,
made
my
way
back
home
I
could
say,
I'm
okay,
I;
m
okay
though
I
know
I'm
not
This
heart
in
me
has
been
replaced
and
it's
made
of
stone
I
think
you
should
get
away,
get
away
from
me
before
I
start
to
rust
Before
the
pain,
pain,
pain
in
my
stomach
turns
my
bones
to
dust
Oh,
it's
such
a
shame,
shame,
Shame,
I
complain
though
I
know
I'm
wrong
Now
I
got
nothing
left
to
say
except
my
love
is
gone
Now
I
got
nothing
left
to
say
except
my
love
is
gone
There's
nothing
wrong
at
all
