Give Up On Love Lyrics

spent some time in contemplation
evaluating my situation
the way in which i'm not to blame
for my sorrow and my anger and my shame
i won't give up on love

my fault is not your lack of care
or the feelings that you hold for spare
my fault is not your emotional reservations
or your c**turally induced emancipation

i won't give up on love
give me the girl, that's
a little more real
and a lover
unafraid to feel
give me the girl
with the heart of gold
who likes to be held
and loves to hold
it's a world with not a lot of love in it
and what you want's not what you always get
i pray the angels fire a little dart
and burn the blackness from your little heart

i won't give up on love
so don't you give up on love girl
