"I Don't Want To Give Up" lyrics

"I Don't Want To Give Up"

Ask me your questions
I'll respond politely
That doesn't mean I'll be correct
Tell me your problems
I'll answer back lovingly
But that doesn't mean that I'll connect

If I am the ocean you're the sky that colors me
I can hide within your blue
But if you think I'm sorry, pathetic, unworthy
Well, I'm just the reflection of you

And I've tried my best to do you right
But you never seem to take the favor
You see me bleed and let me be
So maybe doing nothing is better

But still I don't wanna give up
No, I don't wanna give up on you
I know I'd feel better
My face is always wetter with
Your twisted truth
I'll be weighed down
Held to the ground by you
But still I don't wanna give up
No, I don't wanna give up on you

Give me your opinions and I'll take them as they come
But realize that your interpretation of skies isn't the only one
Storm clouds of gray when you don't get your way
But skies of blue when you do
Makes me wonder why you don't ditch the disguise
And stop seeing me through a mirror of you

And I've tried my best to do you right
But something tells me you try to stay
And you've seen me bleed and let me be
But I just can't seem to go away

'Cause I don't wanna give up
No, I don't wanna give up on you
I know I'd feel better
My face is always wetter with
Your twisted truth
I'll be weighed down
Held to the ground by you
But still I don't wanna give up
No, I don't wanna give up on you

There's something that hangs around
That I'm afraid to face
Oh, and it dangles out of reach
So far away
I keep pleading, needing
For you to notice that I'm not worthless
And this could hurt less
If I could let you go

But still I don't wanna give up
No, I don't wanna give up on you
I know I'd feel better
My face is always wetter with
Your twisted truth
I'll be weighed down
Held to the ground by you
But still I don't wanna give up
No, I don't wanna give up

No, I don't wanna give up
No, I don't wanna give up
I don't wanna give up
No, I don't wanna give up on
