Lyrics
Don?t Give Up
V1
It was just yesterday when I heard you say
That things were getting you down
I took in those words but the story turned
To the pages not meant for me
It felt like we were in the final scene
Where you say you are leaving me
The ink was down there was no way round
What was written for you and me
B1
And before I close the door
Could it be like it was before
Ch1
Now that I?ve seen through
The lies and the games you
Played with my heart from the start
It?s time that you faced up
We can no longer make up
The distance you?ve made between us now
V2
The curtain closed and as you know
Those wings they carried me
Back to the place I first saw your face
And your heart it reached out to me
Time stood still and I could feel the thrill
Of what you were doing to me
But time?s moved on now you?re gone
It?s clear we weren?t meant to be
B2
But before I close the door
Could it be like it was before
Chorus 2 (as 1)
Mid 8
Too much distance between us
It?s too wide to ignore
Too much distance between us
Chorus 3 (as 1)
Ch 4
Now that I know you
Are sorry for what you do
We can try again I know
It?s time that you came round
To the feeling that what you?ve found
Is right for both me and you
