Lyrics
Givin’ up is hard to do when you really love someone
Givin’ up is so hard to do when you still depend upon…
His word and his tender touch
His kiss and his caress
Oh, oh it used to mean so much…
And bring your happiness
Givin’ up is so hard to do. I’ve tried, but it just ain't no use
Givin’ up is so very, so very hard to do
I said, I’ve tried, but it just ain't no use
(Bridge)
But my light, but my light, my light of hope is burning (yes it is)
Burn! Burning in my heart. I pray…
That my love and faith in a man will bring him, will bring him back some day
Hey, hey, hey… yeah!
Oh… Whether, whether, whether, whether whether, whether he knows or not
He, he, he, he really needs me too, yes he does
You know the man is all I’ve got, yes he is
And givin’ up, givin’ up, givin’ up is so hard to do
Hey, hey yeah
Givin’ up, is so hard, so hard for me to do
Hey hey
Givin’ up, is so very hard for me to do, oh
I, I , I don’t wanna lose your love
Because it means, it means so very much to me, oh
See, sometimes, sometimes, sometimes late in the evening, when I’m all alone
I turn out all the lights, and I hold my pillow tight (yes I do)
I just say Oh, Oh, Ooh
Givin’ up
Don’t make me do it baby
Don’t make me do it, don’t make me, don’t make me
Hey hey
Yeah!
Baby Baby
