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
