Give Up Trying

Augustana

Compositor: Dan Layus

Time goes out the window
Climbing up the walls
We're stuck here in the middle
Where we'll never have it all

But, something's changing
Yeah, a stroke of luck
Yeah, just when I thought I'd had enough

I was just about to give up
Yeah, I was just about lose my mind, lose my mind
Yeah, I was just about to give up, give up, give up
Ooh but, it turned around right on time, right on time
Yeah, I was just about to give up trying
Give up trying, give up trying
Let's take our lives back again

The fog is finally lifting
And I feel alive again
All the moments we were missing
They will find us in the end

The storm is ending
The Sun is up
The ground is split where the lightning struck

I was just about to give up
Yeah, I was just about lose my mind, lose my mind
Ooh, I was just about to give up, give up, give up
Yeah, but it turned around right on time, right on time
Oh, I was just about to give up trying
Give up trying, give up trying
Let's take our lives back again

I'm losing my grip
I've got nowhere to turn
So I step to the edge
Now I'm falling to earth

But, your face is smiling
Your lips are flush
Just when I thought you had fallen out of love

I was just about to give up
Yeah, I was just about lose my mind, lose my mind
Ooh, I was just about to give up, give up, give up
Yeah, but it turned around right on time, right on time
Oh, I was just about to give up trying
Give up trying, give up trying
Let's take our lives back again
