Don't Give Up On Me
Written by Glen Burtnik and Plinky
Lead Vocals by Glen Burtnik

You've been changing for reasons unseen and unheard,
And your silence is louder than a thousand words.
You don't care anymore when I stand by your side.
You're not there anymore when I look in your eyes.
I can see you drifting away:
Don't give up on me
Not so easily.
You gotta reach a little higher
Once you get a hold of love, don't let go
Darling, don't give up on me.
In the shadows it becomes so very clear to me
We've been searching for the clearing on a stormy sea.
You don't care anymore when I stand by your side.
You're not there anymore when I look in your eyes.
I can feel you drifting away:
Don't give up on me
Not so easily.
You gotta reach a little higher
Once you get a hold of love, don't let go
Darling, don't give up on me.
You can talk about our freedom
You can talk about our faith
You can talk about falling flat on your face
But it's not too late to save it
And it's not too late to try
To keep this love alive
Don't give up
Don't give up on me
Not so easily.
You gotta reach a little higher
We can make it if we try
Darling, don't give up on me.
Darling, don't give up on me.
