I was counting on the chemicals,
I was waiting on a miracle,
Holding back what was inevitable,
Don't go, don't go.
A ray of hope is never tangible,
Change is almost imperceptible,
A great wave that's immeasurable,
But I know, I know,
We were giants once.

Hold on to me,
Hold on to us,
Hold on to me,
We were giants once.
I still believe,
Hold on to us,
We can still be,
We were giants once.

I remember how it used to be,
We had a confidence, a certainty,
Like we were in the graces permanently,
Is that so, is that so?
Like a belief that you never see,
Til you decide that it has to be,
That's they way it is with you and me,
And I know, I know,
We were giants once.

(Chorus)

Oh donʼt let go.
We were giants once.

I was counting on the chemicals,
I was waiting on a miracle,
Holding back what was inevitable,
Giants once.

Hold on to me,
Hold on to us,
Hold on to me,
We were giants once,
I still believe,
We can still be,
Hold on to us
We were giants once
