Paul Ellis – Give In, Give Up lyrics

If I fell down on my knees
If it came to pleading
Would you take me as I am
Your touch is all I'm needing

Bring me courage, bring me change
Show me oxygen rain
Build a shelter in these arms
If this love should come to harm

Do you know who I am?
Put a little faith in me
If you need some space on a shoulder

Why?
Why?
Why do we fall so fast—
Are you afraid that you'll shatter?
Your heart's made of glass.
Give in
Give up
You can't get ready for it.
Give in
Give up
Just get ready for it…

Cause I am whispering your name
It colors in the rain
Bells are ringing in this town
The women walk in wedding gowns
And if you fear your bones may break
If it comes to heart aching
The dance comes down to this
Every love will bring a risk

The colors we choose
Are yellows and blues
Let’s paint the sky over and over

Why?
Why?
Why do we fall so fast—
Are you afraid that you'll shatter?
Your heart's made of glass.
Just give in
Give up
You can't get ready for it.
Give in
Give up
Just get ready for it…

Oh, get ready.

Do you know who I am?
Put a little faith in me
If you need some space on a shoulder

Why?
Why?
Why do we fall so fast—
Are you afraid that you'll shatter?
Your heart's made of glass.
Give in
Give up
You can't get ready for it.
Give in
Give up
Just get ready for it…

Oh, get ready
Get ready for me
Get ready
Ready for me.

Get ready
Ready for me
