Never Say Die

Mary Chapin Carpenter harmony

Joan Besen piano
Dan Dugmore steel guitar
Michael Joyce bass
Bob Mummert drums
Lyin next to you in the dark
I can feel your beating heart
You’ve been here beside me thru the test of time
We’ve both had our share of doubts
Waited out those old storm clouds
Girl it’s nights like that I know why
Lovers like you and me will never say die
Cause there’s a long line of folks givin up on love
So many hearts get broken in the push and shove
I’ll believe in you for the rest of my life
Baby lovers like you and me will never say die
Tears of joy and tears of pain
Tears say more than words explain
There’s no need for words here tonight
We’ve both felt each others power
A tender touch in the wee small hours
Strong enough to hold us for a lifetime
Lovers like you and me will never say die
Cause there’s a long line of folks givin up on love
So many hearts get broken in the push and shove
I’ll believe in you for the rest of my life
Baby lovers like you and me will never say die
Lovers like you and me will never say die
