Hollow ground and I keep on falling Breathing in but it's not enough When I drown my eyes in the river flowing You said you'll stay just a little more 'Cause the fate is untold I still hear it calling But something is wrong The teardrops are falling Just before they hit the ground Oh when I hear you say Oh when I hear you say Don't give it up, don't give it up, it's glorious Don't give it up, don't give it up, it's glorious No, I can't help it, no, I can't help it Don't wanna stay or run away No, I can't help it, no, I can't help it I close my eyes and I feel your heartbeat A deep blue sea rushes over me When the thunder cracks, I feel the warmth around me 'Cause I found a prize I don't even hold 'Cause the fate is untold I still hear it calling But something is wrong The teardrops are falling Just before they hit the ground Oh when I hear you say Oh when I hear you say Don't give it up, don't give it up, it's glorious Don't give it up, don't give it up, it's glorious No, I can't help it, no, I can't help it Don't wanna stay or run away No, I can't help it, no, I can't help it When the time is right, when there's no way out And I am losing something I ain't got When the love is gone and I'm all alone I give it everything, I'll give it everything now When the time is right, when there's no way out I give it everything, I'll give it everything now When the time is right, when there's no way out And I am losing something I ain't got When the love is gone and I'm all alone I give it everything, I'll give it everything now When the time is right, when there's no way out I give it everything, I'll give it everything now When the time is right, when there's no way out And I am losing something I ain't got When the love is gone and I'm all alone I give it everything, I'll give it everything now When the time is right, when there's no way out I give it everything, I'll give it everything now
