How Can You Give Up? Lyrics - Aimee Mann

No, you don't know 

it makes no sense 

and there goes 

your confidence 

you were so understanding 

so sure of yourself 

but when love became damaged 

you ran for help 

How can you give up on love - Oh 

How can you give up on love so soon 

How can you give up on love this time 

you ought to know love is hard to find 

Steady 

hold your breath 

It isn't 

over yet 

So with one small admission 

your paying the price 

did you tell yourself lying was 

good advice 

How can you give up on love 

How can you give up on love so soon 

How can you give up on love this time 

you ought to know love is hard to find 

It's not easy to tell where 

security lies 

Is it stupid to trust in 

the look in her eyes 

How can you give up on love 

How can you give up on love so soon 

How can you give up on love this time 

you ought to know love is hard to find 

[repeat chorus] 

[fade on chorus]
