Since their formation in 2004, CROSSIN DIXON has averaged more than 100 shows a year.

Don't Give Up On Me
Crossin Dixon Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I ain't been there for you
Like I promised I'd do
And I'm sorry

You know what I've been through
But that ain't no excuse
For your heartache

It's easy to see
You're ready to leave
And I've had it comin' to me

Go on walk out the door
Throw your ring on the floor
Be as angry as you need to be
Take your time, think it through
Whatever you do, baby, please
Don't give up on me

If I woke up tomorrow
And knew you were gone
Well I'd lose it

Everything that I do
Revolves around you
And I know it

Your faith in me,
Can't you see, it's the one thing
That keeps me hanging on

Go on walk out the door
Throw your ring on the floor
Be as angry as you need to be
Take your time, think it through
Whatever you do, baby, please
Don't give up on me, no

Go on walk out the door
Throw your ring on the floor
And be as angry as you need to be
Take your time, think it through
Whatever you do, baby, please

Don't give up on me
Don't give up on me, no

Line by Line Meaning

I ain't been there for you
I haven't been as supportive as I promised to be for you

Like I promised I'd do
I previously made commitments to be there for you

And I'm sorry
I regret not fulfilling my commitments to you

You know what I've been through
You're aware of the struggles I've faced

But that ain't no excuse
However, that doesn't excuse my lack of support for you

For your heartache
Which I recognize has caused you pain

It's easy to see
I understand that it's clear to you

You're ready to leave
That you're prepared to end our relationship

And I've had it comin' to me
I acknowledge that I deserve the consequences of my actions

If I woke up tomorrow
If I found out suddenly

And knew you were gone
That you had left me
