Not Giving Up on Me Songtext
von Jack Ingram

How many times have I been face down
Drowin′ in the bottom of a bottle?
Tryin' to get up only knocked me to me knees

And how many times have I flown around this world
Tryin′ to find somethin' I thought I really wanted
But I didn't need
Come here, girl, I need to tell you somethin′

Nothin′ matters more than what is
Right in front of me
All my searchin' finally found me
Where I needed to be

Took a whole lot of flyin′
A whole lot of fallin'
And damn near drownin′
And you not givin' up on me


God knows how many times
I′ve begged and pleaded
For one more second chance
Only you know how many times
You gave it to me

And the grace it takes to let a man
Make the mistakes that he's gotta make
When you already knew the way
Come here, baby, I must've been half crazy

Nothin′ matters more than
What is right in front of me
All my searchin′ finally found me
Where I needed to be

It took awhile for me to understand
What got me to where I am
What made me a better man
Was you not givin' up on me

All my searchin′ finally found me
Where I needed to be
Took a while for me to understand
It got me to where I am and made me a better man
And you not givin' up on me


All my searchin′ finally found me
Right where I needed to be
Took a whole lotta flyin', a whole lotta fallin′
And damn near drownin'
And you not givin' up on me

Come here, baby
There′s one more thing that I gotta say
I love you for not givin′ up on me
Not givin' up on me
