Lyrics

Every reason not to go

Expressing that there are numerous reasons not to leave

I don't think you'll like it

Suggesting a potential dislike for the destination

I hear that city's cold

Referring to the cold weather in the city

And the people are much warmer

Contrasting the cold city with warm-hearted people

Two good reasons not to go

List of two good reasons not to go: weather and friendly people

You fight traffic all day long

Highlighting the hassle of dealing with traffic

Then you gotta pay to park

Pointing out the inconvenience and cost of parking

You have to go around locking all your doors there after dark

Emphasizing the need for heightened security in the city


Don't know why you feel you gotta go somewhere

Questioning the motivation to travel

Have you ever thought about just saying here

Suggesting staying in the current place as an alternative

If you let me I can give you don't you know

Offering support and reasons to stay

Every reason not to go

Reiterating the idea of having every reason not to leave


Their football team is lousy

Criticizing the football team in the destination city

No matter what they do

Emphasizing the consistently poor performance of the team

You can bet come Sunday they'll find a way to lose

Anticipating a loss on Sundays for the team

You'll hate the way the smoke and the buildings block the sky

Expressing dislike for the city's environmental aspects

Got the prices jacked so high takes a million to get by

Complaining about the high cost of living


Don't know why you feel you gotta go somewhere

Repeating the question about the need to travel

Have you ever thought about just saying here

Recommending the option of staying where you are

If you let me I can give you don't you know

Reassuring support and offering reasons to stay

Every reason not to go

Reaffirming the presence of every reason not to go


There must be something in this town

Suggesting there is something valuable in the current town

You'd be missing if you move

Expressing potential regret if one leaves

'Cause I know if you weren't around I'd be missing you

Stating a personal connection and the importance of the person


Don't know why you feel you gotta go somewhere

Reiterating the questioning of the desire to travel

Have you ever thought about just saying here

Again suggesting staying as an alternative

I'm in love with you

Declaring love for the person

And baby now you know every reason not to go

Concluding that now the person has every reason not to leave
