I gave up on lovin'
A long, long time ago
Ooh yeah, I had myself believin'
I'd rather be on my own, oh

If you're pickin' and choosin'
Or playin' it cool
Well, you wind up losin'
I'm no fool

I won't give up on lovin'
No, I won't give up on love

Get that love
I won't let that love
Escape me once again
I'm gonna get that love
And make it mine

Know that hearts and flowers
Never meant that much to me, no
But telling lies, lies, lies to myself
Will never set me free, oh

If you're pickin' and choosin'
Yeah, I'm playin' it cool
Well, you wind up losin'
I'm no fool

I won't give up on lovin'
No, no, I won't give up on love

Get that love
I won't let that love
Escape me once again
I'm gonna get that love
And make it mine

You know you can build any fortress
Any that you choose
Later discover the prisoner
The prisoner is you, oh

If you're pickin' and choosin'
Yeah, I'm playin' it cool
Well, you wind up losin'
I'm no fool

Get that love
I'm gonna get that love
Get that love
I won't give up

You gotta, get that love
I'm gonna, oh, I'm gonna get that love
Get that love
I, I won't give up

I won't give up on lovin'
No, I won't give up on love

Get that love
I won't let that love
Escape me once again
I'm gonna get that love
And make it mine, all mine

I won't give up on lovin'
No, no, I won't give up on love

Get that love
I won't let that love
Escape me once again
I'm gonna get that love
And make it mine, yeah

I won't give up on lovin'
No, no, I won't give up on love

Get that love
I won't let that love
Escape me once again
