Sinead O'connor - Don't Give Up Lyrics
(peter gabriel)In this proud land we grew up strongWe were wanted all alongI was taught to fight, taught to winI never thought i could failNo fight left or so it seemsI am a man whose dreams have all desertedI've changed my face, i've changed my nameBut no one wants you when you loseDon't give up'cos you have friendsDon't give upYou're not beaten yetDon't give upI know you can make it goodThough i saw it all aroundI never thought that i could be affectedI thought that we would be the last to goIt is so strange the way things turnDrove the night toward my homeThe place that i was born, on the lakesideAnd as daylight broke, i saw the earthThe trees had burned down to the groundDon't give upYou still have usDon't give upWe don't need much of anythingDon't give up'cause somewhere there's a placeThere's a place where we belong'got to walk out of hereI can't take anymoreI'm gonna stand on that bridgeKeep my eyes down belowWhatever may comeAnd whatever may goThat river's flowingThat river's flowingMoved on to another townTried hard to settle downFor every job, so many menSo many men no-one needsDon't give up'cause you have friendsDon't give upYou're not the only oneDon't give upNo reason to be ashamedDon't give upYou still have usDon't give up nowWe're proud of who you areDon't give upYou know it's never been easyDon't give up'cause i believe there's a placeThere's a place where we belong
