## Lyrics

Hollow ground and I keep on falling

Breathing in but it's not enough

And when I drown my eyes in the river flowing

You said you'd stay just a little more

Because the faith isn't gone

I still hear it calling

But something is wrong

Teardrops are falling

But just before they hit the ground

Oh when I hear you say

Oh when I hear you say

Don't give it up

Don't give it up

It's glorious

Don't give it up

Don't give it up

It's glorious

But I can't help it

Oh I can't help it

Don't wanna stay

I'll run away

No I can't help it no I can't help it

I close my eyes and I feel your heart beat

A deep blue sea rushes over me

And when the thunder cries I feel the warmth around me

'Cos I found a home underneath your heart

Because the faith isn't gone

I still hear it calling

But something is wrong

Teardrops are falling

But just before they hit the ground

Oh when I hear you say

Oh when I hear you say

Don't give it up

Don't give it up

It's glorious

Don't give it up

Don't give it up

It's glorious

When the time is right

And there's no way out

And I ain't losing something

I ain't got

When love has gone

When I'm all alone

I'll give it everything

I'll give it everything now

When the time is right

And there's no way out

I'll give it everything

I'll give it everything now

When the time is right

And there's no way out

And I ain't losing something

I ain't got

When love has gone

When I'm all alone

I'll give it everything

I'll give it everything now

When the time is right

And there's no way out

I'll give it everything

I'll give it everything now
