Lyrics
There goes my heart beating
Cause you are the reason
I'm losing my sleep
Please come back now

There goes my mind racing
And you are the reason
That I'm still breathing
I'm hopeless now

I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
Oh, ‘cause I need you to see
That you are the reason

There goes my hands shaking
Cause you are the reason
My heart keeps bleeding
And I need you now

If I could turn back the clock
I'd make sure the light defeated the dark
I'd spend every hour, of every day
Keeping you safe

I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
Oh, ‘cause I need you to see
That you are the reason
You are the reason
Yeah, yeah...

I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
Oh, ‘cause I need you to see
That you are the reason

Summary

Calum Scott returns after his incredible version of Dancing on My Own with the fantastic and absolutely mesmerising You Are The Reason. The track gets some fantastic club remixes to elevate it to the next level. First is the legend Tiesto with his laidback moody dark progressive Afterhours style with tribal drums, warm driving basslines, chunky percussion, xylophone and guitar melodies, orchestral strings and calming synths creating the perfect warm up song for any DJ set. John Gibbons remix takes the track in a more euphoric direction with mixture of tropical and future house with superb feel good rhythm and brilliant breakdown where the full chorus supports the awesome Calum. Playful application of the nice vocal and balearic touches turn this track the perfect singalong moment in any morning radio show. Lastly MOTi remix turns the sweet original into a powerful mainstage banger. Melodic and euphoric to the maximum you must experience the uplifting synths, the pumping bass and the irresistible drums on a festival this summer. Great package with music video to shine. #PureGolderthanGold Love iT
