I ain't gonna give up on love,
Love ain't gonna give up on me.
I ain't gonna give up on love,
Love ain't gonna give up on me.
Every tear I cried
Only washed away the fear inside.
I just ain't gonna give up on love.


Every beat of my heart
Pounds with joy and not with pain.
Every beat of my heart
Pounds with joy and not with pain.
All those painful memories
They only brought me to my knees,
'Cause I was giving up on love.


Little Johnny Taylor told me so, so long ago,
All about the midnight crying, oh lord,
All the cheating and lying
And about the price that must be paid.
'Cause if we gave up on love,
Well, love will surely have its day.
If we don't give up on love.


I ain't gonna give up on love,
Love ain't gonna give up on me.
I ain't gonna give up on love,
Love ain't gonna give up on me.
Every time I try,
Lord, it just won't let me be.
