Don't Give Up On A Good Thing

(album: The Living Return - 1994)

Don't give up on a good thing
It's too soon to stop
So don't give up
You might just run out of chances
Don't give up on a good thing

People wheeling here
People dealing there
Scratching a living when there's nothing left to share
Where do we go from here

People running scared
Taking no one's word
Believing in rumors that can only make things worse
I'm going away

It's never been so clear
That what we got right here
Could easily just fade and disappear

Don't give up on a good thing
It's too soon to stop
So don't give up
You might just run out of chances
Don't give up on a good thing

Don't give up on a good thing
It's too soon to stop
So don't give up
You might just run out of chances
Don't give up on a good thing

Don't give up on a good thing
Got to make it last
Before it's lost
Nothing in this world has lasted
Don't give up on a good thing no no no
Don't give up, don't give up on a good thing no no no

On a good thing

Breathing the same air
Where do we go from here
Using resources till there's nothing left to spare
What do we have to show

Does any body care
Did anybody hear
Prayers left unanswered
Have they fallen on deaf ears
Who's listening now

Got to plant this seed
They're asked to sow
The future's in our hands so let it grow
Don't give up on a good thing
Don't give up on a good thing
Don't give up on a good thing no no no
