Herbie Hancock – Don’t Give Up Lyrics

Artist: Herbie Hancock
Song: Don’t Give Up

[** feat. P! nk and John Legend:]
[** Originally by Peter Gabriel:]
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
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
Don’t give up
‘cos 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

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
Rest your head

You worry too much
It’s going to 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 anymore

Going to stand on that bridge
Keep my eyes down below
Whatever may come
And whatever may go

That river’s flowing
That river’s flowing
Moved on to another town
Tried hard to settle down

For every job, so many men
So many men no-one needs
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
’cause I believe there’s the a place

There’s a place where we belong
