| When you're fingered by self-doubt, my dear, | |
| no-one is innocent or guilty. | |
| Chained, your reaction when you're on the spot: | |
| the flower of faith is wilting. | |
| But if there's something that you've left behind | |
| there'll be something else upcoming... | |
| make what you will, the future happens; | |
| now this is something that you just won't find till later. | |
| No disillusion or despair will be defeat, | |
| no simple disappointment should stay you | |
| get up upon your feet, | |
| (Don't you ever give up on me) | |
| stand up: life is sweet | |
| (I will never give up on you) | |
| with will we'll all shine through... | |
| (Don't you ever say "Can't", till you try you don't know quite what you can do.) | |
| can do. | |
| When the long wave of the future breaks | |
| we're all transmitters and receivers, | |
| babes, and we're swaddled in the changeling room. | |
| If this is nothing less than mystic | |
| and yet something more than strange | |
| still there's nothing worth remembering | |
| for tomorrow you could ever change... | |
| I think you got it, | |
| I think you got it, | |
| it's in the pocket. | |
| You know your place, you know your name, you got your slot, | |
| you got the strength to be exactly what you want to. | |
| With faith in faith intact, | |
| (Don't you ever give up on me) | |
| time to test the given facts: | |
| (I will never give up on you) | |
| when we wake we'll be made brand new | |
| (Don't you ever say "Can't", if you know that's not true) | |
| and I'll be there right beside you. | |
| (Don't you ever say "Won't", when you know you'll pull through) | |
| I believe in time we'll all shine through... | |
| (Don't you ever say "Can't", till you try you don't know what you can do.) | |
| Can do, | |
| can do. | |
| Don't you say you can't do it; till you try you don't know what you can do. | |
| You say you can't do it – says who? |
| When you' re fingered by selfdoubt, my dear, | |
| noone is innocent or guilty. | |
