verse one:
  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...
    chorus: (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.
    verse three:
  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.
    verse four:
  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.
    chorus: (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...
    verse five: (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...
    verse six:
  Got to walk out of here
  I can't take it anymore
  Gonna stand on that bridge
  keep my eyes down below.
  Whatever may come
  that river's flow
  that river's flow...
    verse seven:
  Moved on to another town
  tried hard to settle down
  For every job, so many men
  so many men no-one needs.
    chorus: (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...
