AFTER YOU
HAD YOU SEEN ME WITH SOMEONE NEW
HANGING SO HIGH FOR YOUR RETURN
BUT THE STILLNESS IS A BURN
HAD I SEEN IT IN YOUR EYES
THERE'D HAVE BEEN NO TRY AFTER TRY
YOUR LEAVING HAD NO GOODBYE
HAD I JUST SEEN ONE IN YOUR EYES
I CAN'T GIVE IT UP
TO SOMEONE ELSE'S TOUCH
BECAUSE I CARE TOO MUCH
COULD YOU TELL
I WAS LEFT LOST AND LONELY
COULD YOU TELL
THINGS AIN'T WORKED OUT MY WAY
I WISHED THE BEST FOR YOU
I WISHED THE BEST FOR ME
I WISHED FOR INFINITY
IF THAT AIN'T ME
GIVE IT UP
I CAN'T GIVE IT UP
I CAN'T GIVE IT UP
TO SOMEONE ELSE'S TOUCH
BECAUSE I CARE TOO MUCH
GIVE IT UP
I CAN'T GIVE IT UP

I first heard snippets of this song on TV series Hung starring Thomas Jane. I was immediately drawn to its intro and bought The XX album titled XX. I love most of the songs on this album as I find their vocal rendering simple yet endearing. 3 other favorites from this album are Intro, Crystalised and Islands. I love their Islands video!
