(feat. Shannon Noll)

In this proud land we grew up strong

We were wanted all along
I was taught to fight, taught to win
I never thought I could fail


No fight left or so it seems
I am a man whose dreams have all deserted

IÂ've changed my face, IÂ've changed my name
But no-one wants you when you lose


DonÂ't give up
Â'Cause you have friends
DonÂ't give up

YouÂ're not beaten yet
DonÂ't give up
I know you can make it good


Though I saw it all around
Never thought that I could be affected

Thought that weÂ'd be last to go
It is so strange the way things turn


Drove the night toward my home
The place that I was born, on the lakeside
As daylight broke, I saw the earth

The trees had burned down to the ground

DonÂ't give up

You still have us
DonÂ't give up
We donÂ't need much of anything

DonÂ't give up
Â'Cause somewhere thereÂ's a place
Where we belong


Rest your head
You worry too much

ItÂ's going to be alright
When times get rough
You can fall back on us

DonÂ't give up
Please donÂ't give up


Got to walk out of here
I canÂ't take any more
Going to stand on that bridge

Keep my eyes down below
Whatever may come
And whatever may go

That riverÂ's flowing
That riverÂ's flowing


Moved on to another town
Tried hard to settle down
For every job, so many men

So many men no-one needs

DonÂ't give up

You still have us
DonÂ't give up now
WeÂ're proud of who you are

DonÂ't give up
You know its never been easy
DonÂ't give up

Â'Cause I believe thereÂ's a place
ThereÂ's a place where we belong
