Wanting to leave, asking you to stay,
Why does all our pride come into play'
Hearts on the line, give another try,
Know we were wrong, let's keep moving on,
A will to survive.

Slipping away, slipping away, no way,
I'm gonna get it this time,
Getting it right, getting it right, alright,
I'm gonna put up a fight.

Ain't giving up, giving up,
I ain't giving up on you.

Now is the time I'll take you by the hand,
Together we'll climb to the promised land,
We're gonna steal away the night with the dawning of the day,
Taking my hand, we'll do what we can,
Make a better way.

Slipping away, slipping away, no way,
I'm gonna get it this time,
Getting it right, getting it right, alright,
I'm gonna put up a fight.

Ain't giving up, giving up,
I ain't giving up on you,
Giving up, giving up, (no way)
I ain't giving up on you.

Our whole lives, we keep waiting for another change,
Wanting something for nothing - there's gotta be some exchange.

Giving up, giving up,
I ain't giving up on you,
(ad lib, fade)
