Every reason not to go

I don’t think you’ll like it
I hear that city’s cold
And the people aren’t much warmer
Two good reasons not to go

You fight traffic all day long
Then you gotta pay to park
You have to go round locking all
Your doors there after dark

Don’t know why you feel you’ve gotta go somewhere
Have you ever thought about just staying here
If you let me I can give you, don’t you know
Every reason not to go

Their football team is lousy
No matter what they do
You can bet come Sunday
They’ll find a way to lose

You’ll hate the way the smog
And the buildings block the sky
Got the prices jacked so high
Takes a million to get by

Don’t know why you feel you’ve gotta go somewhere
Have you ever thought about just staying here
If you let me I can give you, don’t you know
Every reason not to go

There must be something in this town
You’ll be missing if you move
Cos I know if you weren’t around
I’d be missing you

Don’t know why you feel you’ve gotta go somewhere
Have you ever thought about just staying here
I’m in love with you and baby now you know
Every reason not to go
Every reason not to go
Baby please don’t go
