"Never Gave Up" lyrics

I could do what I want
I could hang in the bar with my friends being nonchalant
I was a fool for a while
But you knew somehow that the sweat and the tears were worthwhile

And you never gave up, no
No you never gave up, no

And you loved me more than I ever deserved
And I bet you thought it would be returned
I'm ashamed 'cause I know how it feels to hurt
And I hurt you more than you ever deserved

But you never gave up, no
No you never gave up

And I don't wanna be free
I believe that my world is at peace when you're here with me
I was at war for a while
Rather fight than to talk 'cause you know that it isn't my style

But you never gave up, no
No you never gave up, no

And you loved me more than I ever deserved
And I bet you thought it would be returned
I'm ashamed 'cause I know how it feels to hurt
And I hurt you more than you ever deserved

But you never gave up, no
No you never gave up
Oh I love you, I love you, I love you
'Cause you never gave up
You never gave up, no no no no

I wish I could go back in time
To start again and do things right
Or maybe just be someone else
And walk into your world
I wish I could explain my shame
My vanity and pride are both to blame
I wish I could be someone else
And walk into your world

'Cause you loved me more than I ever deserved
And I bet you thought it would be returned
I'm ashamed 'cause I know how it feels to hurt
And I hurt you more than you ever deserved

But you never gave up
But you never gave up
