I guess i should stop drinking They're closing down the bar I missed my bus to nowhere So now i'm standing in the dark And i think it might be tuesday By now you're getting dressed for work And i wish i could come home to you I hope by now that you've found someone That treats you just like you deserve And i sing, i don't wanna give I don't wanna give I don't wanna give I don't wanna give I don't wanna give you up I don't wanna give you up And i swear to god, i'm freezing But it's a july afternoon And i search the sky for reasons But every painted cloud i've ever seen Still makes me think of you And the second hand seems restless 'cause it's been moving awful slow And i'm all out of useful questions And i ain't got no explanation for why i ever let you go And i sing, i don't wanna give I don't wanna give I don't wanna give I don't wanna give I don't wanna give you up I don't wanna give you up And i sing i don't wanna give I don't wanna give I don't wanna give I don't wanna give I don't wanna give you up I don't wanna give you up I don't wanna give you up This cocaine makes me anxious And all this liquor makes me sad So i don't sleep much in the evenings So i spend my afternoons in bed I wish you could forgive me I wish that you would take me back 'cause by myself i'm broken And you're the only thing i ever loved That really loved me back So i sing, i don't wanna give I don't wanna give I don't wanna give I don't wanna give I don't wanna give you up I don't wanna give you up And i sing, i don't wanna give I don't wanna give I don't wanna give I don't wanna give I don't wanna give you up I don't wanna give you up I don't wanna give you up (x5)
