Went through three winters, three summers
|
Thinking that you're gonna return
|
My friends said it over and over
|
"Gotta stop holding on to her"
|
I went through fire and rain
|
Every moment I thought you called
|
There was nothing to gain
|
How did I get the blame for it all
|
|
Feels like I could never let you go
|
'Cause it just intensifies the pain
|
I wish there was a way to let you know
|
That being without you is not the same
|
|
So I'm not giving up on love
|
You know our history
|
Girl, we were meant to be
|
Why should I give you up, my love
|
It was you and me
|
Now I'm left with nothing
|
|
Do you remember the flowers I sent
|
They don't grow in September, you know
|
You said you didn't feel love
|
You know better girl, but that was the story you told
|
You said that you tried and you tried
|
You kept telling that lie to yourself
|
What you feel you can't hide
|
You won't find it in nobody else
|
|
Feels like I could never let you go
|
'Cause it just intensifies my pain
|
I wish there was a way to let you know
|
Being without you is not the same
|
|
So I'm not giving up on love
|
You know our history
|
Girl, we were meant to be
|
Why should I give you up, my love
|
It was you and me
|
Now I'm left with nothing
|
|
So I'm not giving up on love
|
You know our history
|
Girl, we were meant to be
|
Why should I give you up, my love
|
It was you and me
|
Now I'm left with nothing
|
|
Giving up on love
|
You know our history
|
Girl, we were meant to be
|
Why should I give you up, my love
|
It was you and me
|
Now I'm left with nothing
|
|
(Giving up, up, up, up, up, up, up
|
Giving up, up, up, up, up, up, up
|
Giving up, up, up, up, up, up, up
|
Giving up, up, up, up, up, up, up)
