You call me up, I'll say a few words
But I'll try not to speak too long
Please to be kind and I'll try to explain
I'll probably get it all wrong
What does it mean when you promise someone?
That no matter how hard or whatever may come
It means that I won't give in
Won't give in, won't give in
'Cause everyone I love is here
Play it once, disappear
Once in a while I return to the fold
With people I call my own
Even if time is just a flicker of light
And we all have to die alone
What does it mean when you belong to someone?
When you're born with a name, when you carry it on
It means that I won't give in
Won't give in, won't give in
'Cause everyone I love is here
All at once, and I'll show you how to get me there
Come on now, come on now, can you feel it, I can see it in ya
Come on now, come on now, reveal it, turn around won't ya
The right time, the right place, right now, turn around
A chance is made, a chance is lost
I carry myself to the edge of the earth
It means that I won't give in
Won't give in, won't give in
'Cause everyone I love is here
Say it once, just say it and disappear
