Reasons - John Farnham

Some people are dreamers they live for the future

As if it would work out just as they dreamed it

Would work out somehow

Others get caught in yesterday's papers

Too busy reading to get on with living

But I live for now

Sometimes it's easy to make up excuses

On the flimsiest pretext and then call them reasons

But where are they now

Like I'm way too busy I can't be involved now

And then there's the standby about understanding

But they're wrong somehow

I'll climb more than a mountain

Swim more than an ocean

Build up an island

Live for a lifetime

Just give me a reason and I'll come running

When I have reasons I know the way

I'm pointing my feet in the right direction

Give me a reason

Some people are dreamers they live for the future

As if it would work out just as they dreamed it

Would work out somehow
