Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby don't you give up on me
You got to know you're my inspiration
Baby don't you give up on me
Don't you know you're my only sensation

When you hold me like this
It feels so right
And baby when you touch me like this
It feels so nice
Girl you're all that I need
You're all I want
Don't give up on me baby
Please baby don't
It took a whole lot of loving
Kissing and hugging
Ooh you keep me moving
Hey girl, could this really be for real?

Baby don't you give up on me
You got to know you're my inspiration
Baby don't you give up on me
Don't you know you're my only sensation

When you're calling my name
I go insane
And baby when you look in my eyes
I'm in paradise
Girl you're all that I need
You're all I want
Don't give up on me baby
Please baby don't
It took a whole lot of loving
Kissing and hugging
Ooh you keep me moving
Ya know, this is really for real!

Baby don't you give up on me
You got to know you're my inspiration
Baby don't you give up on me
Don't you know you're my only sensation

Baby don't you give up on me
You got to know you're my inspiration
Baby don't you give up on me
Don't you know you're my only sensation

Hold on, Don't give up
Hold on, Don't give up

Baby, whenever you leave me this way
And darlin' I can't find the what to say

Baby don't you give up on me
You got to know you're my inspiration
Baby don't you give up on me
Don't you know you're my only sensation

Don't give up
Baby, baby
Don't give up on me girl
Don't give up o n me baby
Baby don't you give up on me

Don't give up on me baby, ohhhh

When this came out I was homeless, on drugs, and went to jail. Now I have a house, job, and husband. This song and “Clover Cage - In The Sky” are the two songs that helped get rid of my depression. I just want to send love to everyone and I want everyone to know things will get better. We are in this together..I love you 💕

@mithun2753

We all have that one song 😭as a memories we never forget

@ryanriaz

Why new songs gets boring quickly and old ones just eases your soul when you listen to it and it never gets old. Love these songs they’re nostalgic

@kennylamere8542

Because it’s always the same lyrics. Only a few artists have albums that last more than a week nowadays
