The reason you smile when you look at your phone
The reason you daydream when you're all alone
The reason your friends don't see you as much

The reason you've learned all the words to THE NOTEBOOK

The reason you've got lip gloss in your car

The reason your sheets smell like flowerbomb
The reason you sleep with half of the covers
The reason you won't give your heart to another


I wanna be
I wanna be

That Girl
I wanna be
I wanna be

That Girl
Who makes you happy
Who makes you smile


Say I am
Say I am

The reason
The reason
Say I am

Say I am
The Reason
The Reason

That you say WE and US
Yeah I wanna be
Yeah I wanna be

The Reason

The reason your loafers are right next to heels

The reason your bathroom is hers & his
The reason your closet is hard to get in
The reason your shirts are stacked and folded


The reason your mom doesn't worry as much
The reason you tell her "We'll see you at church"

The reason your dad says he has a daughter
The reason your brother has a sister


I wanna be
I wanna be
That Girl

I wanna be
I wanna be
That Girl

Who makes you happy
Who's worth the while
