You call me up and i'll say a few words
But i'll try not to speak too long
Please to be kind and i'll try to explain
I'll probably get it all wrong
What does it mean when you promise someone
That no matter how hard or whatever may come

It means that i won't give in, won't give in, won't give in
'cause everyone i love is here
Take me home. take me home

Once in a while i return to the fold
With people i call my own
Even if time is just a flicker of light
And we all have to die alone
What does it mean when you belong to someone
When you're born with a name, when you carry it on

It means that i won't give in, won't give in, won't give in
'cause everyone i love is here
All at once, and i'll show you how to get here

Come on now, come on now, can you feel it, i can see it in ya
Come on now, come on now, reveal it, turn around won't ya
The right time, the right place, right now, turn around

A chance is made, a chance is lost, i carry myself to the edge of the earth

It means that i won't give in, won't give in, won't give in
'cause everyone i love is here
Say it once, just say it, and disappear
