Give It Up

(アルバム： Rhythm Of The Night - 1985)

I see you looking out a broken window
Another rainy day
I see you looking for a face, but I know that
She's miles away
I know you're searching your imagination
'Til the morning light
I know you're searching for an explanation
A simple reason why

I want you to know
That she was never known to be
A lover to ever come on
She treated you cold
And if you ever want to be recovered
You'd better let go

You've got to give it up
I know you're strong enough
To break out of this mountain of lies
You've got to give it up
Go on and live it up
Kick her out of your life
Or you never will ever survive

I see you dialing all the combinations
That seven numbers can be
A simple process of elimination
And in your heart you believe
She will be the one who answers saying
She'll be in right away
But all the nickels and the dimes you're paying
You're throwing away

I want you to know
That she was never known to be
A lover to ever come on
She treated you cold
And if you ever want to be recovered
You'd better let go

You've got to give it up
I know you're strong enough
To break out of this mountain of lies
You've got to give it up
Go on and live it up
Kick her out of your life
If you're gonna survive

You've got to give it up
I know you're strong enough
To break out of this mountain of lies
You've got to give it up
Go on and live it up
Kick her out of your life
Or you never will ever survive
