Yeah, I know, my love
I keep feeling the distance
Ambition on my mind
Losing time in the dissonance

Is what we had so bad?
Is what we had so bad?

The flame may have died, but I still hold the torch
We'll talk it over when I'm in New York
Don't give up on me
I won't give up on you
And when you're alone, baby, so am I
Did me some damage, but I'll make it right
What a funny thing for me to realize
While writing number five

Come and buy my love
Got romance for hire
Pour my heart in glass
It's on the funeral rider

It doesn't sound so bad
It doesn't sound so bad

The flame may have died, but I still hold the torch
We'll talk it over when I'm in New York
Don't give up on me
I won't give up on you
And when you're alone, baby, so am I
Did me some damage, but I'll make it right
What a funny thing for me to realize
While writing number five

Don't give up on me
I won't give up on you
Don't give up on me

We were friends before we were lovers
I wish we would remember that
We were friends before we were lovers
Don't give up on me
We were friends before we were lovers
I wish we would remember that
We were friends before we were lovers

The flame may have died, but I still hold the torch
We'll talk it over when I'm in New York
Don't give up on me
I won't give up on you
And when you're alone, baby, so am I
Did me some damage, but I'll make it right
What a funny thing for me to realize
While writing number five

Don't give up on me
I won't give up on you
