Give Up on Love

Spent some time in contemplation
Evaluating my situation
The way in which I’m not to blame
For my sorrow and my anger and my shame
I won’t give up on love
My fault is not your lack of care
Or the feelings that you hold for spare
My fault is not your emotional reservations
Or your culturally induced emancipation
I won’t give up on love
Give me the girl, that’s
A little more real
And a lover
Unafraid to feel
Give me the girl
With the heart of gold
Who likes to be held
And loves to hold
It’s a world with not a lot of love in it
And what you want’s not what you always get
I pray the angels fire a little dart
And burn the blackness from your little heart
I won’t give up on love
So don’t you give up on love girl
