P!nk’s Fall-Themed Version of “Just Give Me a Reason” Will Have You Craving a PSL

The first official day of fall 2023 is Saturday, September 23—yet for those who yearn for sweater weather year-round, it can never come soon enough. If you're the type who counts the days until it's time for leaf peeping, fire pits, and all things pumpkin spice, we present the perfect soundtrack to your vibe: This autumn-themed version of P!nk's "Just Give Me a Reason," belted by the high-flying singer herself. 

The alternate lyrics come courtesy of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, submitted by a clever viewer who goes by @RasmussenKandi on X, formerly known as Twitter. Backed by The Roots, P!nk delivered the lines pitch-perfectly, evoking the joy of all-too-brief fall weather. 

Get your karaoke mics ready to sing along: "Just give me fall season / Just a little bit of fun / Just a second to enjoy this weather / Before it's winter time again." 

It wasn't the only astounding cover that the gifted singer, who was a mentor on season 10 of The Voice, delivered during her 2017 visit to The Tonight Show. P!nk also showcased an excellent Alanis Morissette impression for a "You Oughta Know" verse about fall allergies ("Ah-ah choo / Blow your nose") and dazzled with a raking-focused spin on "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" before tackling The Police, Garth Brooks, and Cardi B. 

Watch P!nk blow the audience away with her voice in the full "#Hashtags: Fall Songs" segment below.

Right from the start
You were a thief, you stole my heart
And I, your willing victim
I let you see the parts of me, that weren't all that pretty
And with every touch you fixed them
Now you've been talking in your sleep, oh oh
Things you never say to me, oh oh
Tell me that you've had enough
Of our love, our love

Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
Just a second, we're not broken, just bent and we can learn to love again
It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
We're not broken, just bent, and we can learn to love again

I'm sorry I don't understand
Where all of this is coming from
I thought that we were fine (oh, we had everything)
Your head is running wild again
My dear we still have everythin'
And it's all in your mind (yeah, but this is happenin')
You've been havin' real bad dreams, oh oh
You used to lie so close to me, oh oh
There's nothing more than empty sheets between our love, our love
Oh, our love, our love (love)

Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again
I never stop, you're still written in the scars on my heart
You're not broken, just bent, and we can learn to love again

Oh, tear ducts and rust
I'll fix it for us
We're collecting dust, but our love's enough
You're holding it in
You're pouring a drink
No, nothing is as bad as it seems
We'll come clean

Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
Just a second, we're not broken, just bent and we can learn to love again
It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
That we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again

Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough
Just a second, we're not broken, just bent, and we can learn to love again
It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our hearts
That we're not broken, just bent and we can learn to love again

Oh, we can learn to love again
Oh, can learn to love again
Oh, that we're not broken, just bent and we can learn to love again
