Giving Up Lyrics By Donny Hathaway

    giving up
    is hard to do
    when you really
    love someone
    giving up
    so hard to do
    when you still depend upon
    her warm and tender touch
    her kiss and her caress
    ooh that used to mean so much
    and bring you happiness whoa

    giving up
    so hard to do
    i’ve tried uh uh
    but it just ain’t no use
    giving up
    so hard to do
    i said i’ve tried
    but it just ain’t no use

    but my light of hope
    is burning dim
    but but in my heart i pray yeah
    that my love and faith
    in the girl
    whoah will bring her back one day
    yeah yeah

    i’m talking about
    giving up’s so hard yeah

    ooh whether
    whether she knows or not
    she really needs me too
    the little girl
    is all i got
    yes she is
    and giving up
    giving up is so hard to do
    whoah

    giving up
    so hard to do
    giving up
    so very hard to do
    i said i’ve tried it
    hey but i just can’t get loose
    woooh giving up
    so hard for me to do
    i don’t want to lose you
    ’cause you mean
    so much to me
    ooooh giving up
