I'm Giving Up On You

There was a time when we used to care
You and I had a love beyond compare
But that was yesterday
When I try to get next to you
It's the last thing you want to do, baby
Oh, tell me what's a fool to do?

Stay inside, protect my pride
Everything was an illusion
Now I see I must be free
To fly away, yeah, fly

What do I have to do to make you see
I'm not the fool you tried to make of me?
I thought the whole thing through
I'm givin' up on you
Now it's time for me to be a man
There comes a time
When you must take a stand
That's what I'm gonna do
I'm givin' up on you

It's a shame that we had to fall
'Cause you and I seemed to have it all
But, baby, we finally hit a wall
Now you say that you wanna try
But it's too late to give it one more cry
So it's time to say goodbye, yes, it is

Why was I the last to know
Everything was an illusion?
Now I see I must be free
To fly away, yeah, fly

What do I have to do to make you see
I'm not the fool you tried to make of me?
I thought the whole thing through
I'm givin' up on you

Stay inside, protect my pride
Everything was an illusion
Now I see I must be free
To fly away, yeah, fly

What do I have to do to make you see
I'm not the fool you tried to make of me?
I thought the whole thing through
I'm givin' up on you
Now it's time for me to be a man
There comes a time
When you must take a stand
That's what I'm gonna do
I'm givin' up on you
