"Don't Give Up On Me" lyrics

"Don't Give Up On Me"

There are blue skies coming up my way
You can look for me on the sunny side
Somewhere down the lost highway
There's a midnight train crossing that great divide

Don't give up on me, don't give up
I'm done with my coming unwound, got my feet on the ground
Don't give up on me, don't give up, I'm winding my way back home
Thank God I been gone too long

Did my time in the house of detention
A thousand and nine dark days in a long straight line
Now that it's over I'll mention
Mending my outlaw ways put an end to my messed-up mind

Don't give up on me, don't give up
I'm done with that debt I paid on account of that bed I made
Don't give up on me, don't give up, I'm taking back time I lost
In the name of that line I crossed

There's no time to lose out here in the night
I'd like to know how good it can be
When something comes together right

Don't give up on me, don't give up
I'm flaggin' that diesel down, jake-braking that highway sound
Don't give up on me, don't give up, along about break of day
I'm coming back home to stay
