Another night all I can see, you've given up so easily
I'm wondering what I'm supposed to do
Another dream I know its mine, I think about it all the time
But nothing ever takes the place of you
I can't give it up
I've got to look for you inside my love
Never gonna let it go
It's up to me
I can't give it up
I've got to look for you inside my love
Never gonna let it go
It's up to me (It's always up to me)
What was it that you said to me?
I heard you call but never see
So good to me, I'd like to say
But I caught you out on Saturday
What was it that you said to me?
I heard you call but never see
So good to me, I'd like to say
But I caught you on a date today
Talking in my sleep I try to find out all the reasons why
I'm starting all the games you used to play
You're in and out my life so much
I'm waiting for that final touch
You know that you can always count on me
I can't give it up
I've got to look for you inside my love
Never gonna let it go
It's up to me (yeah, yeah)
I can't give it up
I've got to look for you inside my love
Never gonna let it go
It's up to me (It's always up to me)
What was it that you said to me?
I heard you call but never see
So good to me, I'd like to say
But I caught you out on Saturday
What was it that you said to me?
I heard you call but never see
So good to me, I'd like to say
But I caught you on a date today
I can't give it up
I've got to look for you inside my love
Never gonna let it go
It's up to me (yeah, yeah)
I can't give it up
I've got to look for you inside my love
Never gonna let it go
It's up to me (It's always up to me)
I can't give it up
I've got to look for you inside my love
Never gonna let it go
It's up to me (yeah, yeah)
I can't give it up
I've got to look for you inside my love
Never gonna let it go
It's up to me (It's always up to me)
