I'll meet you in the shadows that come at night I'll listen to your cries through the door If you won't let me in, I'll just wait outside Until you're ready, I will just be ignored I'll find you when you hide in the darkest cave And be there when you emerge I will shield your eyes from the blinding light Is there a prayer to lift this curse? 'Cause you're in trouble, you're in deep When you can't wake up, but you can't sleep When it starts to slip away And the world forgets your name I will not give up I will not give up on you Come fire and flood Let the earth shake, I won't move No matter what No matter what you say or do I will not give up I will not give up on you Whoa-ooh-whoa I will wait for you at the forest edge And feel each season change I don't care what anybody else says They can leave, I will stay I'll save you a seat when the tables set Hold your place 'til you return I will light a candle by your photograph If and when you say the word Then I'll come running down these streets As fast as my feet will take me When the crowds all go away And the world forgets your name I will not give up I will not give up on you Come fire and flood Let the earth shake, I won't move No matter what No matter what you say or do I will hide the pain that I push through Put a brave face on for you Choke back tears all meant for you Oh-ooh, whoa-oh-oh, ooh-whoa I will not give up I will not give up on you Come fire and flood Let the earth shake, I won't move No matter what No matter what you say or do I will not give up I will not give up on you (Never give up) whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh (I will never give up) whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-ooh-oh, ooh-oh
