Sometimes hits me in the morning, hits me at night
But I cannot turn back the years
And when I look deep down inside I know
That I cannot turn back the years
We have to move on, but no matter how hard I try
But I cannot turn back the years
I'll keep holding on to you
So we have to be strong, and I'm finding that hard
And I'm never gonna give it up
If your heart's in pieces, you look for the truth
But I'm never gonna give it up
So I look out my window, turn off my light
All that I lived for, all that I dreamed
You're the water I drink, you're the air that I breathe
It's too bad I love you, too bad I love
Never gonna, no never gonna give it up
But I'm never gonna give it up
Can't make it seem easy, when you're all that I see
It's too bad I love you
Never gonna give it up
The perfect love was all you wanted from me
But I cannot turn back the years
Can't live in a dream and I won't serenade the truth
It's here to stay and I'm never gonna
You know, you mean too much to me to give it up
You know I love you
And when I look deep down inside I know
But I cannot turn back the years
No, no, no, never gonna
It's too bad I love you
And I'm never gonna give it up, give it up
We have to move on, no matter how hard I try
People are hurting and they're looking to me
Never gonna give it up, no I'm never gonna give it up
And I look at you there's nothing more to say
So we have to be strong, and I'm finding that hard
If your heart's in pieces, you look for the truth
