lyrics

Don’t give up girl
On all the things you search for
I have seen men with deeper souls
Than the tunnels that run below Fairmile
I have heard words that bring me to tears
And voices that could’ve come from angels
I have seen men who were tougher than nails
Who only raise a hand to say, “I’ll take the blame”

Don’t give in girl
To all the things that haunt you
You deserve more than all these second bests
And all the times you think that that’s the best you’ll get
You don’t need the pain just to keep yourself real
When there’s pain enough in just giving love
When one man will die just to let you be free
You at least deserve someone who knows what you’re worth

And I have seen fields full of canvas and fire
Where prophets still speak and stories are told
And I have cried in the arms of an angel
And I have been lost in hollow despair
Hearts can be broken and days become dust
And you may forget the things that we said
But hold tight to the trouble inside you
‘Cos it could destroy you or keep you alive

(Verse 1&2)

And you mean the world to me
