Lyrics

Could've given you everything that you need

But I cannot turn back the years

The perfect love was all you wanted from me

But I cannot turn back the years

So we have to be strong, and I'm finding that hard

We have to move on, no matter how hard I try

If your heart's in pieces, you look for the truth

And when I look deep down inside I know

It's too bad I love you, too bad I love

Sometimes hits me in the morning, hits me at night

That I cannot turn back the years

So I look out my window, turn off my light

But I cannot turn back the years

Can't make it seem easy, when you're all that I see

Can't live in a dream and I won't serenade the truth

People are hurting and they're looking to me

And I look at you there's nothing more to say

It's too bad I love you

But I'm never gonna give it up

You know I love you

And I'm never gonna give it up

I'll keep holding on to you

And I'm never gonna give it up, give it up

All that I lived for, all that I dreamed

But I cannot turn back the years

You're the water I drink, you're the air that I breathe

But I cannot turn back the years

So we have to be strong, and I'm finding that hard

We have to move on, but no matter how hard I try

If your heart's in pieces, you look for the truth

And when I look deep down inside I know

It's too bad I love you

But I'm never gonna give it up

No, no, no, never gonna

It's here to stay and I'm never gonna

Never gonna give it up

Never gonna, no never gonna give it up

Never gonna give it up, no I'm never gonna give it up

You know, you mean too much to me to give it up

Never gonna give it up
