Givin' Up on Lovin' Songtext
von Magic City Hippies

Givin′ up on lovin'
Givin′ up on lovin'
Givin' up on love
Givin′ up on lovin′
Givin' up on lovin′
Givin' up on lovin′
Givin' up on love

Baby, when your voice is
Making pretty noises
Are you singing for another?
Don′t make me disappointed, no

Bitter cold caress, you're breathing winter wind for days
Innocently wishing that the emptiness'll fade
Kissing lying lips and leaving nothing left to taste
Vanilla sugarcane, but then it′s not the same

Givin′ up on lovin' (givin′ up all I knew, givin' up what you do)
Givin′ up on lovin' (givin′ attention to, givin' up lovin' you)
Givin′ up on lovin′ (givin' up passionfruit, gemini sunset views)
Givin′ up on love (givin' attention to, givin′ up lovin' you)


(Hey, hey, hey, hey)
She was the whole package at the wrong address
Roll it up, stick it out, all up on my desk
I′m shooting damn near a hundred, you can call me Tex
Put your name and your number in my rolodex
I'm signing all the checks with a diamond S
I've got a locket full of molly and I′m on the jet
When the kitty′s in heat, better call the vet
Baby, life's too short to worry about regret

Bitter cold caress, you′re breathing winter wind for days
Innocently wishing that the emptiness will fade
Kissing lying lips and leaving nothing left to taste
Vanilla sugarcane, but then it's not the same

Givin′ up on lovin' (givin′ up all I knew, givin' up what you do)
Givin' up on lovin′ (givin′ attention to, givin' up lovin′ you)
Givin' up on lovin′ (givin' up passionfruit, gemini sunset views)
Givin′ up on love (givin' attention to, givin' up lovin′ you, ooh)

Not so fun when the rabbit′s got the gun (givin' up lovin′ you)
I was lying to myself when I said I was lost (givin' up lovin′ you)
I've never been lost (ooh)
But that′s the lesson of life isn't it? (Ooh)
If our demons can't dance
Then neither can we (ooh)
