When you burn the food 'cause you got too distracted
When you roll your eyes and try to keep from laughin'
When you're tired 'cause you haven't done much sleepin'
I wanna be the reason
When you spend your Sundays cheerin' on the Redskins
When you skinny dip and almost get arrested
When you're feelin' buzzed, but you ain't even drinkin'
I wanna be the reason
Oh, I wanna be the reason why
You wake up and go to sleep with a smile
'Cause girl you're mine, so I
Wanna be yours too
When you're scared to tell your dad you got a roommate
And now everywhere you go, you're showin' up late
'Cause there's something that keeps keepin' you from leavin'
I wanna be the reason
Oh, I wanna be the reason why
You wake up and go to sleep with a smile
'Cause girl you're mine, so I
Wanna be yours too
When you've got a lot of grey up in your blonde hair
And you're lookin' back on all the ways you got there
And you wouldn't change a single thing you're seein'
I wanna be the reason
You can laugh it off, but girl you know I mean it
I wanna be the reason
