Giving Up Lyrics - Highway - Holly Williams

17 years with a wedding ring 

The saddest damn story you ever seen 

2 little kids and a good hearted man 

Trying to save her if they can 

I tried myself, I cried with her 

I held her hand, we talked to the Lord 

But we're only human and we can't change 

Somebody's will to leave their ways 

The doctor said you'd die, if you had another drink 

Well I wonder if it scares you, yea I wonder if you think 

About the daughter that you're leaving, the man you used to love 

And the son that cries for you, oh yes, that child that cries for you 

Well I guess this is it, oh yea, you must be givin' up 

You put us all through a living hell 

A thousand excuses for your liquor trail 

But my compassion is fading fast 

Another rehab and you break another glass 

Bottles in dryers, bottles in shoes 

There were even bottles in the baby's room 

You're losing everything that you ever had 

Your life is one thing all that money can't buy back 

The doctor said you'd die, if you had another drink 

Well I wonder if it scares you, yea I wonder if you think 

About the daughter that you're leaving, the man you used to love 

And the son that cries for you, oh yes, that child that cries for you 

Well I guess this is it, oh yea, you must be givin' up 

17 years with a wedding ring 

The saddest damn story you ever seen 

Two little kids and a good hearted man 

Trying to save her, if they can
