Give Up Song Lyrics
Give Up by Tyson Motsenbocker [Verse 1]
In the old downtown and the vacant houses
Empty lots filled with wildflowers
You put a plywood bed in a Dodge Ram Tradesman
And parked it outside the American Legion
You took me down to see the ocean
As the winds began to change
With the back doors open, your head on my shoulder
And all the things I would not change
[Chorus]
But you never gave up, like the good was good enough
Right up to the minute of what you always saw coming
Yeah, you never gave up when we both put me above
And I pushed you into lovе just to watch you falling
[Verse 2]
I never tried to build for tomorrow
Thеre was always time when the future was fiction
And you looked at me like candles through a pumpkin
That I had hollowed out to suit one Halloween
And I took your hands, stretched out in a motion
In the halogen, summertime, baseball-stadium sunlight
And by speaking nothing, you were saying something
Just reaching out 'til the bitter end
[Chorus]
But you never gave up, like the good was good enough
Right up to the minute of what you always saw coming
Yeah, you never gave up when we both put me above
And I pushed you into love just to watch you falling
[Post-Chorus]
You should have given up (You should have given up on me)
You should have given up (You should have given up on me)
You should have given up (You should have given up on me)
You should have given up (You should have given up on me)
You should have given up (You should have given up on me)
You should have given up (You should have given up on me)
You should have given up (You should have given up on me)
You should have given up (You should have given up on me)
