Giving Up
Donny Hathaway

Giving up

Is hard to do

When you really

Love someone

Giving up

So hard to do

When you still depend upon

Her warm and tender touch

Her kiss and her caress

Ooh, they used to

Mean so much

And bring you happiness

Giving up

So hard to do

I've tried

But it just ain't no use

Giving up

So hard to do

I said I've tried

But it just ain't no use

But my light of hope

Is burning dim

But in my heart I pray

That my love and faith

In the girl

Will bring her back to me

Ooh, whether

Whether she knows or not

She really needs me too

The little girl

Is all I got

Yes she is

And giving up

Giving up is so hard to do
