A beautiful live version of this song that somehow escaped my notice until today.

If you call me up, I’ll say a few words
But I’ll try not to speak too long
Please to be kind and I’ll try to explain
I’ll probably get it all wrong
What does it mean when you
Promise someone
That no matter how hard
Or whatever may come

It means that I won’t give in
Won’t give in, won’t give in
‘Cause everyone I love is here
Play it once then we disappear.

Once in a while I return to the fold
With the people I call my own
Even if time is just a flicker of light
And we all have to die alone
What does it mean when you
Belong to someone
When you’re born with a name
When you carry it on

It means that I won’t give in
Won’t give in, won’t give in
‘Cause everyone I love is here
All at once
They show you how to get real

Come on now, come on now
Can you feel it
I can see it in you
Come on now, come on now
Reveal it
Turn around won’t ya
The right time, the right place
Right now
Turn around

A chance is made, a chance is lost
I carry myself to the edge of the earth

It means that I won’t give in
Won’t give in, won’t give in
‘Cause everyone I love is here
Say it once
Just say it
And disappear

Detroit Local Powers First EV Charging Road in North America The road, about a mile from Local 58's hall, uses rubber-coated copper inductive-charging coils buried under the asphalt that transfer power to a receiver pad attached to a car's underbelly, much like how a phone can be charged wirelessly. ...
