Give Yourself a Reason – Lyrics
Verse 1
Your eyes were on him, head filled with all the things you wanted to do
And when he walked into your room and started kissing you slow
It told you all the things you needed to know
Chorus
You'll see him next season
So give yourself a reason
To tell him you want more
Not just walk out the door
Verse 2
There was snow in Montreal, but it was worth the wait
Then he had to go; it was getting late
But that kiss on the stairs, I bet it felt like a dream
so tender and honest, so sensual and real
Chorus
You'll see him next season
So give yourself a reason
To tell him you want more
Not just walk out the door
Verse 3
You watched him win the cup, and tears welled in your eyes
Seeing him hold it up for his mother, swallowing your pride
Heart beating in your chest
Wishing you could confess
Chorus
You'll see him next season
So give yourself a reason
To tell him you want more
Not just walk out the door
Verse 4
The night he won the deal
He asked if you wanted to know how it feels
You never even kissed
And it was something that you missed.
Your hearts had collided, but neither of you was confiding
Tell him what you want
Let him give you what he's got
Chorus
You'll see him next season
So give yourself a reason
To tell him you want more
not just walk out the door

Behind the Song – Give Yourself a Reason
Give Yourself a Season is a song about timing, courage and the moments in life when love quietly waits for us to believe we're worthy of it.
The story follows two people who clearly belong together, yet neither is brave enough to say what their heart is feeling. Their connection grows through fleeting moments, a first kiss, time apart, shared triumphs and unspoken longing, but fear, uncertainty and vulnerability keep getting in the way.
The chorus becomes both a reminder and a plea: don't let the opportunity pass simply because you're afraid of what might happen next.
Although inspired by a fictional love story, the emotions are universal. Many of us have experienced the regret of leaving words unsaid, convincing ourselves there will always be another chance. The song encourages listeners to choose hope over fear, to trust what their heart already knows, and to believe that happiness often begins with one act of honesty.
At its heart, Give Yourself a Season is about giving yourself permission to love, to be vulnerable, and to step through the door instead of walking away from it.
