Don't Give Up
Leon Jackson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Your heart is lost
You feel afraid
And you're lying in your bed
Can't face the day

Someone like you
You should be proud
You are beautiful
It hurts to hear you say

That you're not willing to fight anymore
You used to kill me with your smile

So baby
Don't give up on love
Run to me and i will lead you out of danger
Don't let me hear you say that you're not good enough
Let me hold you in my arms
Let me be the one you trust
Don't give up on love

You need a friend
Someone who cares
He was a fool to let you go
But some things have to end
Please be strong
Hold your head up high
I just wanna see your eyes light up again

And we can sit
And we can talk and talk and talk
Empty all your fears you have inside

So baby
Don't give up on love
run to me and i will lead u out of danger
don't lemme hear you say that you're not good enough
Let me hold you in my arms
Let me be the one you trust

Don't be afraid to call me
Whats the use in being lonely
You've got to get back your happy heart

So baby
Don't give up on love
Run to me and i will lead you out of danger
Don't let me hear you say that you're not good enough
Let me hold you in my arms
Let me be the one you trust
