For all the times you stood by me
Through right and wrong
For being there to catch me when I'd fall
I love you for your faith in me
For all the joys you've given me
But one thing makes me love you most of all

You never gave up on me
(Never gave up)
When I was givin' love up on you
Every time I thought this love can't work
(On me)
You stayed to see it through
You never gave up on me
(Never gave up)
When I was makin' things rough on you
And you showed me what it really means to love somebody

And though sometimes
We might not see things eye to eye
You always met me more than half the way
For all the times I let you down
And you could have packed your things and gone
I love you most of all because you stayed

And you never gave up on me
(Never gave up)
When I was givin' love up on you
Never mattered who's right or wrong
(On me)
You stayed to see it through
You never gave up on me
(Never gave up)
When I was makin' things rough on you
And you showed me what it really means to love
There were times I just knew
You did not understand my moods
All those long and sleepless nights
I put us through
But you stuck by me anyway
Gave me love every day
Now there's nothin' in this world
I wouldn't do for you

'Cause you never gave up on me
(Never gave up)
When I was giving love up on you
Every time I thought this love can't work
(On me)
You stayed to see it through
You never gave up on me
(Never gave up)
When I was makin' things rough on you
And you showed me what it really means to love

No, you never gave up on me
(Never gave up)
When I was givin' love up on you
Every time I thought this love can't work
(On me)
You stayed to see it through
You never gave up on me
(Never gave up)
When I was makin' things rough on you
And you showed me what it really means to love
(Never gave up)
(On me)
(Never gave up)
