Lyric Don t Give Up (With Michael Mcdonald)

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 alright
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
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 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 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 is a place
A place where you belong
