I'm not a perfect [ person,] There's many things I wish I didn't do,
But I continue [ learning,] I never meant to do those things to you,
And so I have to say before I go, That I just want you to [ know,]
I [ found] a reason for me, ^ To change who I used to be,
^[ A] reason to start over new, ^ And the reason is you,
I'm sorry that [ I] hurt you, It's something I must live with everyday,
And all the pain I put [ you] through, ^ I wish that I could take it all away,
And be the one who catches all your [ tears,] That's why I need you to hear,
I [ found] a reason for me, ^ To change who I used to be,
A reason to start over new, ^ And the reason is [ you,]
And the reason is you, ^[ And] the reason is you,
[ And] the reason is you,^
I'm not a perfect person, I never meant [ to] do those things to you,
And so I have to say before I go, That I just want you to [ know,]
I found a reason for me, ^ To [ change] who I used to be,
A reason to start over new, ^ And the reason is [ you,]
I found a reason to show, A side of me you didn't [ know,]
A reason for all that I do, And the reason is [ you,]
