Don't Give Up

Black Belt Eagle Scout

Compositor: Katherine Paul

Slow, important love
It keeps me alive
You wanted a second chance at life
Well you’re alive

You hear your heart beating
You walk under the trees
Engulfed by beauty
I just hold you here with me

I don’t give up
I don’t give up
I don’t give up
I don’t give up anymore
I don’t give up

You heard it here today
I told you my story
That I found healing in you
Windy leaves are flowing
And in these leaves
They come from people who grow
But we’re to listen, guide us
I want everyone to know

I don’t give up
I don’t give up
I don’t give up
I don’t give up anymore
I don’t give up anymore
I don’t give up
I don’t give up anymore

I was only seventeen
I was only seventy

The land, the water, the sky
The land, the water, the sky
The land, the water, the sky
The land, the water, the sky

The land, the water, the sky
The land, the water, the sky
The land, the water, the sky
The land, the water, and the sky
