Moya Brennan, Michael McDonald - Don’t Give Up lyrics

In this proud land we grew up strong
We were wanted all along

I was taught to fight taught to win
I never thought i could fail
No fight left or so it seems
I am someone whose dreams have all deserted

I've changed my face i've changed my name
But no one wants you when you lose

Don't give up you still have me

Don't give up you're not beaten yet

Don't give up i know you can make it

Though I saw it all around
Never thought that I could be affected
Thought that we'd be the last to go
It is so strange the way things turn
Drove the night towards my home
The place that I was born on the lakeside

As daylight broke i saw the earth
The trees had burned down to the ground

Don't give up you still have me

Don't give up
You won't need much of anything

Don't give up 'Cause I know there's a place
Where you belong

Rest your head you worry too much
It's gonna be all right when times get rough
You can fall back on me don't give up
Please, don't give up

Got to walk out of here
I can't take anymore

Gonna stand on that bridge
Keep my eyes down below

Whatever may come and whatever may go
Let rivers flow let rivers flow

Moved on to another town
Tried hard to settle down

For every job so many men
So many men no one needs

Don't give up 'Cause you have me

Don't give up you're not the only one

Don't give up no reason to be ashamed

Don't give up you know you still have me

Don't give up i'm proud of who you are

Don't give up you know it's never been easy

Don't give up 'Cause I know there's a place
A place where you belong

Don't give up don't give up
Don't give up

Don't give up don't give up
Don't give up

Don't give up don't give up
Don't give up

Don't give up don't give up
Don't give up

Don't give up don't give up
Don't give up

Don't give up don't give up
Don't give up

Don't give up don't give up
Don't give up

Don't give up don't give up
Don't give up

Don't give up don't give up
Don't give up
