Men At Work - Giving Up Lyrics
If there should be the faintest traces
Of you in my summer sky
My heart would pound and race
And people ask me why
Did I pull those funny faces
I look for things to say
And still I find you
I won't give up
Don't talk of giving up
And every night I swear I've finished
And when I rise to face the day
Resolve just fades away
And so it follows
I place temptation out of reach
Then search in every niche
Until I find you
I won't give up
Don't talk of giving up
I won't give it up--Love this world
No thoughts of giving up oh no no no no no
Perhaps its only saints who suffer
For those needs to which we're slaved
This road I walk is paved with good intentions
The final choice hangs on a wire
And there's no room for feet to stray
The piper waits for pay
And still I find you
I won't give up
Don't talk of giving up
I won't give up--Love this world
No thoughts of giving up oh no no no no no
I won't give it up--Love this world
Don't talk of giving up
I won't give it up--Love this world
No thoughts on giving up

2019! love this song
diana carolina hernandez valencia So Underrated
Too bad is so underrated, this song is one of their best in my opinion.
Greg Ham had such a wonderful singing voice and he was an incredible self-taught multi-instrumentalist, as well. 'Two Hearts' was released in the U.S. in 1985, when I was 16-years-old. I was going through some very difficult times then and was contemplating suicide (don't judge me) to escape this cruel thing called life. But then I bought the 'Two Hearts' CD & heard Greg singing 'Giving Up'. It had such a profound impact on me that I abandoned those nasty-bad suicidal ideations and began listening to the song over & over again (to 'ingrain it in my brain') -- and much to the dismay of my parents. Thirty+ years later it still touches me the way it did all those years ago (as do the songs 'Fear' [from the CD 'Sway'], 'Black Orchid' [from the CD 'The Answers'] & 'Razorblade' [from the CD 'History For Sale'] -- all by Blue October). Knowing that Greg Ham died alone, and with misplaced guilt thanks to that damned [lawsuit] debacle which claimed he had 'copied' certain flute riffs from 'Kookaburra...', although the lyrics and sheet music had been written by Colin Hay & Ron Strykert a year before Greg joined them, truly makes my heart hurt.
The world lost [out on] an incredibly talented & gifted man the day Greg Ham passed away. I won't remember him for copying anything because a person can't copy something that doesn't already exist. Instead, I will remember, and continue listening to, the music, as well as his playful, goofy antics, and those beautiful blue eyes & impish grin/smile that melted the heart of the 13-year-old girl that I was in 1982. They still do.
Blessed Be, Greg Ham🕆. You will always have a special place in my heart ❤. Thank you for the music 🎼🎤🎷🎹 🎸 and stopping me doing 'something stupid' all those years ago. My life didn't turn out as I had hoped, but I won't be Giving Up anytime soon.
