|
In this proud land we grew up strong
|
We were wanted all along
|
I was taught to fight, taught to win
|
I never thought I could fail
|
|
No fight left or so it seems
|
I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
|
Ive changed my face, Ive changed my name
|
But no one wants you when you lose
|
|
[Natalie]
|
Dont give up
|
cos you have friends
|
Dont give up
|
Youre not beaten yet
|
Dont give up
|
I know you can make it good
|
|
[Shannon]
|
Though I saw it all around
|
Never thought I could be affected
|
Thought that wed be the last to go
|
It is so strange the way things turn
|
|
Drove the night toward my home
|
The place that I was born, on the lakeside
|
As daylight broke, I saw the earth
|
The trees had burned down to the ground
|
|
[Natalie]
|
Dont give up
|
You still have us
|
Dont give up
|
We dont need much of anything
|
Dont give up
|
cause somewhere theres a place
|
Where we belong
|
|
Rest your head
|
You worry too much
|
Its going to be alright
|
When times get rough
|
You can fall back on us
|
Dont give up
|
Please dont give up
|
|
[Shannon]
|
got to walk out of here
|
I cant take anymore
|
Going to stand on that bridge
|
Keep my eyes down below
|
Whatever may come
|
And whatever may go
|
That rivers flowing
|
That rivers flowing
|
|
Moved on to another town
|
Tried hard to settle down
|
For every job, so many men
|
So many men no-one needs
|
|
[Natalie]
|
Dont give up
|
You still have us
|
Dont give up now
|
Were proud of who you are
|
Dont give up
|
You know its never been easy
|
Dont give up
|
cause I believe theres the a place
|
Theres a place where we belong
|
