DON'T GIVE UP ON ME song lyrics
by Joel Sattler
based on a translation of
NE ME QUITTE PAS by Jacques Brel
Don’t give up on me
Why can’t you forget too?
Learn to forget
What is gone and yet
To forget the time
The crimes of passion
And the time we lost
In foolish fashion
Forget all the hours
Of accusing “why”
That killed happiness
And the heart inside
Don’t give up on me
Don’t give up on me
Don’t give up on me
Don’t give up on me
I will catch for you
The pearls of the rain
From the countries where
It will never rain
I’ll dig in the earth
Till I have to die
To dress you royally
in the gold and light
I’ll set you in a realm
where love is the king
where love is the law
And where you are queen
Don’t give up on me
Don’t give up on me
Don’t give up on me
Don’t give up on me
Don’t give up on me
I’ll invent for you
Words that seem insane
But you know are true
I’ll tell you a tale
Of lovers who looked twice
Saw their hearts’ desire
Burn up in the fire
And I will tell for you
The story of a king
Who died an empty thing
From never meeting you
Don’t give up on me
Don’t give up on me
Don’t give up on me
Don’t give up on me
One can often see
Driven to the brink
The volcano burst
That was thought extinct
Seems we have to learn
When the earth is burned
better wheat will grow
Than from April sown
And when day has died
would sky be so alive
If the black and the red
Could not there be wed?
Don’t give up on me
Don’t give up on me
Don’t give up on me
Don’t give up on me
Don’t give up on me
I will shed no tears
I won’t even speak
I’ll just hide in here
To catch a glimpse of you
Dancing with a smile
Listening to you
Laughing all the while
If you will let me be
Your shadow silhouette
The shadow of your hand
The shadow of a man
Don’t give up on me
Don’t give up on me
Don’t you quit on me
Don’t give up on me
