Lyrics

We know full well there’s just time.

So is it wrong to dance this line?

If your heart was full of love

could you (F)give

it up?

’Cause what a bout, (Am)what a bout an gels?

They will come, (Am)they will go and make us

spe (C)cial, oh.

Don’t give

me up.

Don’t give

me up.

How un fair, it’s just our luck.

Found some thing real that’s out of touch.

But if you’d searched the whole wide world,

oh,

would you dare

to let it go?

’Cause what a bout, (Am)what a bout an gels?

They will come, (Am)they will go and make us

spe (C)cial, oh.

Don’t give

me up.

Don’t give

me up.

’Cause what a bout, (G)what a bout an gels?

They will come, (G)they will go and make us

spe cial.

It’s not a bout, not a bout an gels,

an

(C)gels.
