Lyrics
I just gave up
Let it all go
Without anyone to get in my way
Gave up the lessons I've learned
Because
When it came to push and shove
All I had was all your love
And that's enough to get me by
When I lay down tonight
I won't be the only one who gave up the fight
If I stop keeping time
You know I won't be the only one to make it all right
And not even try
What I used to want
I never got
But far bigger things knocked down my door
And showed me the things I should know
So I gave away the chances of
Giving more than a father's love
But that's enough to get me by
When I lay down tonight
I won't be the only one who gave up the fight
If I stop keeping time
You know I won't be the only one to make it all right
And not even try
