Giving Up - Holly Williams

17 years with a wedding ring

The saddest damn story you ever seen

2 little kids and a good-hearted man

Trying to save her if they can

I tried myself, I cried with her

I held her hand, we talked to the Lord

But we’re only human and we can’t change

Somebody’s will to leave their ways

The doctor said you’d die, if you had another drink

Well I wonder if it scares you, yea I wonder if you think

About the daughter that you’re leaving, the man you used to love

And the son that cries for you, oh yes, that child that cries for you

Well I guess this is it, oh yea, you must be givin' up

You put us all through a living hell

A thousand excuses for your liquor trail

But my compassion is fading fast

Another rehab and you break another glass

Bottles in dryers, bottles in shoes

There were even bottles in the baby’s room

You’re losing everything that you ever had

Your life is one thing all that money can’t buy back

The doctor said you’d die, if you had another drink

Well I wonder if it scares you, yea I wonder if you think

About the daughter that you’re leaving, the man you used to love

And the son that cries for you, oh yes, that child that cries for you

Well I guess this is it, oh yea, you must be givin' up

17 years with a wedding ring

The saddest damn story you ever seen

Two little kids and a good-hearted man

Trying to save her, if they can
