Wanting to leave, asking you to stay
Why does all our pride come into play?
Hearts on the line, give another try
I know we were wrong, let's keep moving on
A will to survive

It's slipping away, slipping away, no way
I'm gonna get it this time
Getting it right, getting it right, all right
I'm gonna put up a fight

Ain't giving up, giving up
I ain't giving up on you

Now is the time I'll take you by the hand
Together we'll climb to the promised land
We're gonna steal away the night with the dawning of the day
Taking my hand, we'll do what we can
Make a better way

It's slipping away, slipping away, no way
I'm gonna get it this time
Getting it right, getting it right, all right
I'm gonna put up a fight

Ain't giving up, giving up
I ain't giving up on you
Giving up (no way), giving up
I ain't giving up on you

Well, our whole lives
We keep waiting for another change
Wanting something for nothing
There's gotta be some exchange
