Remember when we were hand in hand
Remember we sealed it with a golden band
Now your eyes don't meet mine
You've got a pulse like fever
Do I take you for a lover
or just a deceiver?
Simple is simple and plain is plain
If you leave me now you won't come back again
Oh, don't give up
Don't renege on our love,
Don't renege on our love
Give me just an ounce of sympathy
Give me my chains of liberty
There's a rope that binds us
And I don't want to break it
If love is a healing
Why should we forsake it?
Hunger is hunger and need is need
Am I just another mouth to feed?
Oh, the game is up
Don't renege on our love
Don't renege on our love
Remember when we were hand in hand
Remember we sealed it with a golden band
Now your eyes don't meet mine
You've got a pulse like fever
Do I take you for a lover
or just a deceiver?
When my heart breaks, it breaks like the weather
If you leave me now it'll thunder forever
Oh, don't give up
Don't renege on our love
Don't renege on our love
Don't renege on our love
