In this proud land we grew up strong

we were wanted all along

I was taught to fight, taught to win

I never thought I could fail.

verse two:

No fight left or so it seems

I am a man whose dreams

have all deserted.

I've changed my face,

I've changed my name

but no one wants you when you lose...

(Sarah Brightman)

Don't give up - 'cause you have friends

Don't give up - you're not beaten yet

Don't give up - I know you can make it good.

Though I saw it all around

never thought I could be affected.

Thought that we'd be the last to go

it is so strange the way things turn.

Drove the night toward my home

the place that I was born, on the lakeside.

As daylight broke, I saw the earth

the trees had burned down to the ground.
 [bad word]  (Sarah Brightman)

Don't give up - you still have us

Don't give up - we don't need much of anything

Don't give up -'cause somewhere

there's a place,

where we belong...

(Sarah Brightman)

Rest your head

you worry too much

it's gonna be alright,

When times get rough

you can fall back on us

Don't give up

please don't give up...

Got to walk out of here

I can't take it anymore

Gonna stand on that bridge

keep my eyes down below.

Whatever [bad word] 
and whatever may go

that river's flow

that river's flow...

Moved on to another town

tried hard to settle down

For every job, so many men

so many men no-one needs.

(Sarah Brightman)

Don't give up - 'cause you have friends

Don't give up - you're not the only one

Don't give up - no reason to be ashamed

Don't give up - you still have us

Don't give up now

we're proud of who you are...

Don't give up - you know it's never been easy

Don't give up - but believe there's a place

a place where we belong...
