Am I made of paper 'Cause I tear so easily Am I made of vapor Because I disappear Do I have to have a reason For anything I feel Just be glad I'm real Glad I'm real Am I real Are you made of lead paint A bulletproof Picasso All the virgin saints Put you here to care for me I don't need a reason For anything I feel Just be glad I say what I mean And mean what I say to you We don't need a reason For anything we feel We don't need a reason Picasso's at the wheel So roll this top down, hell with this town Leave our bags behind We don't need a reason 'Cause I got you, and you got me tonight ('Cause I got you, and you got me tonight) Did you ever see the waves break Into a million pieces Or stay awake With someone who was dying You don't need to tell me Anything at all I'm just glad you're here Glad you're real Are you real Am I made of timber 'Cause I'm on fire Will you remember Tonight for very long You don't need to sell me On anything at all Just say what you mean And mean what you say to me We don't need a reason For anything we feel We don't need a reason Picasso's at the wheel So roll this top down, hell with this town Leave our bags behind We don't need a reason 'Cause I got you, and you got me tonight Amber waves of grain Fly by highway lanes Waited for this change Seems like my entire life If only the good die young We'll outlast everyone For some of the things we've done And we've just begun (Oh) We don't need a reason For anything we feel We don't need a reason Picasso's at the wheel So roll this top down, hell with this town Leave our bags behind We don't need a reason 'Cause I got you, and you got me tonight Woah (You got me tonight) Woah (You got me tonight) Woah (Oh you got me tonight) Woah
