|
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 a man 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 |
|
'Cause you have friends |
|
Don't give up |
|
You're not beaten yet |
|
Don't give up |
|
I know you can make it good |
|
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 toward 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 us |
|
Don't give up |
|
We don't need much of anything |
|
Don't give up |
|
'Cause somewhere there's a place where we belong |
|
Rest your head |
|
You worry too much |
|
It's going to be alright |
|
When times get rough |
|
You can fall back on us |
|
Don't give up |
|
Please don't give up |
|
Got to walk out of here |
|
I can't take anymore |
|
Going to stand on that bridge |
|
Keep my eyes down below |
|
Whatever may come |
|
And whatever may go |
|
That river's flowing |
|
That river's flowing |
|
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 friends |
|
Don't give up |
|
You're not the only one |
|
Don't give up |
|
No reason to be ashamed |
|
Don't give up |
|
You still have us |
|
Don't give up now |
|
We're proud of who you are |
|
Don't give up |
|
You know it's never been easy |
|
Don't give up |
|
'Cause I believe there's a place |
|
There's a place where we belong |
