Give It Up

It is my theory The two of us are somewhat leery About the happiness We both set out to posses We've got all the comforts of life A few kids and you are my wife And I tell it like it is I must confess I'm gonna have to give it up I'm gonna have to give it up All concern and the trusts that never happened with us The walk of embraces and the love of our faces It never happened you see and I'm so sorry I really truly love you And the kids you must agree And I never had too much Concern or interest in astrology But as I read it must be so The invulnerable word incompatible No matter how much we try Our indifference but still show Now we've got give it up I'm gonna have to give it up All concern and the trusts that never happened with us The walk of embraces and the love of our faces It never happened you see and I'm so sorry Now we've got give it up, ooh child I've got to have to give it up Lord, have mercy Now I've got give it up, ooh I've got to give it up All concern and the trusts that never happened with us The walk of embraces and the love of our faces It never happened you see and I'm so sorry But now we've got to give it up What am I do? Child, we've got to give it up I'll be so lonely without you But now I've got to give it up Lord, forgive me, ooh I've got to give it up, ooh Now I've got to give it up Lord, I have to give it up --- Give It Up - Curtis Mayfield
