Story Behind The Song
This was inspired after watching a very close friend go through a dark night of the soul. In my helplessness to lift it from him I wrote this song to remind him of what he could not see at the time.

Lyrics
Cry those tears I will catch them
for they cannot drown your heart
they may seem like an ocean to you
but our ship will carry you through
Don't You Give Up, Oh no
Don't You Give Up
Don't You Give Up, Oh no
We're almost there
If it takes all your patience
every ounce of your strength and will
I'll be there like wind on a sail
take my hand I won't let you fail
Don't You Give Up, Oh no
Don't You Give Up
Don't You Give Up, Oh no
We're almost there
It's always darkest fore the dawn
so don't let the illusion lead you on
it's never what it seems you know in dreams, so keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on...
Cause we're stronger than you know
though you might believe that it ain't so but I gotta boat that we can row all the way all the way home yeah, all the way....
Don't You Give Up, Oh no
Don't You Give Up
Don't You Give Up, Oh no
We're almost there
Don't You Give Up, Oh no
Don't You Give Up
Don't You Give Up, Oh no
We're almost there...
Tag...We're stronger than you know
