Givin' You Up Lyrics

I need to tell you why I been unhappy
It's been too long on my mind
Oh - Oh
Gotta admit you were there when I needed
Still there's something I gotta find
Oh - my darlin'
I been thinkin''bout givin' you up
Been thinkin' 'bout changin' my luck
Givin' you up - there's nothin' that you've done
Givin' you up I've outgrown your love
Givin' you up I need some time on my own
In order to find me I - I'm givin' you up

You might hear 'bout me seeing somebody
Though it's not love I'm trying to find
Oh - Oh
It could be the freedom without you I'm needing
You took me for granted I found
Oh - my darlin'
I been thinkin''bout givin' you up
And maybe I wanted too much

If you believe all that you hear
You won't believe that love lasts thru the tears
Try to remember the good times
I'll have the memories
And I gotta admit you were there when I needed

Oh - my darlin'
I been thinkin''bout givin' you up
I been thinkin' 'bout changin' my luck

Givin' you up
Givin' you up

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
