I Will Not Give Up lyrics

I will not give up The coffee's cold, the sky is just a gray blur Another morning where nothing is as it were I still set out two plates, I can't explain it A haunted habit that I can't constrain yet Every song on the radio is a lie 'Cause they don't know the reason why I cry They talk of moving on, of finding peace But my memory of you will never cease I trace your name in the dust on the window pane A futile attempt to make you real again I clutch the remnants of a life we planned to share Breathing in the ghost of your last breath of air The truth is, I'll never be whole, babe After all, you're gone, and even if I have to walk the streets looking for you Shouting your name nonstop, I won't give up I walk the sidewalk where we used to meet The bitter cold air stings my face like defeat I check the corners, the cafés, and the old park bench Searching for a sign, a quick, familiar wrench In my stomach when I think I see your hair It's just a stranger, a burden I must bear People stare as I whisper: Where are you now? A desperate prayer I don't know who or how to vow I trace your name in the dust on the window pane A futile attempt to make you real again I clutch the remnants of a life we planned to share Breathing in the ghost of your last breath of air The truth is, I'll never be whole, babe After all, you're gone, and even if I have to walk the streets looking for you Shouting your name nonstop, I won't give up They call it denial, say I should let you rest But giving up on you feels like a final test If I stop searching, you're truly just a dream And I'd rather live forever in this broken stream My voice is hoarse, my feet are tired and sore But I'll keep pounding on your forgotten door The truth is, I'll never be whole, babe After all, you're gone, and even if I have to walk the streets looking for you Shouting your name nonstop, I won't give up Shouting your name (your name) Nonstop I won't give up
