I Won't Give Up...

I'm truly blessed to have a great husband who is also my very good friend. Someone who helps me navigate through life, is there when I need him, but also gives me my space. Our marriage has its ups and downs like any relationship, but we are dedicated and we always look to God for guidance, patience, and ways to love harder.

Anyhoo, the reason I'm sharing all of this is because I'm a HUGE Jason Mraz fan and I played his last cd "We sing, We dance, We steal things" into the ground, so I was eagerly awaiting his new music. Well below is the first single from his LOVE cd and I absolutely love it!  It stirs my soul....His songs are always so full of truth. It's titled "I Won't Give Up" and that's exactly how I feel about several things in my life right now, and I'm so grateful to have a partner who supports my determination in all that I do. I'd love to know if this song resonates with you too.

Have a great weekend!


Lyrics

"I Won't Give Up"
Hmmmm ... Hmmmm ... Hmmmm ... Hmmm ...

When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
There's so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

And when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find

'Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No, I won't give up

I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools and gifts we got yeah, we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you're still my friend at least we did intend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I've got, and what I'm not
And who I am

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up
Still looking up.

I won't give up on us (no I'm not giving up)
God knows I'm tough enough (I am tough, I am loved)
We've got a lot to learn (we're alive, we are loved)
God knows we're worth it (and we're worth it)

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up
