Badfinger

Badfinger were a British rock band consisting originally of Pete Ham, Ron Griffiths, Mike Gibbins and Tom Evans; active from 1968 to 1983, and evolving from The Iveys; formed by Ham, Griffiths and David "Dai" Jenkins in Swansea, Wales, in the early 1960s. Joey Molland joined the group in 1969, following the departure of Griffiths. Signed by The Beatles' Apple label in 1968 as The Iveys, they adopted the name Badfinger in 1969. Badfinger had four consecutive worldwide hits in 1970 and 1971: "Come and Get It" (written and produced by Paul McCartney), "No Matter What", "Day After Day", and "Baby Blue". The Ham/Evans-penned Badfinger song, "Without You", became a Billboard number one hit for Harry Nilsson. more »

We live in hope of love
And wait to die
And sadness all around us
Waits for crying
And feelings
That once meant so much
Are left to dry and trun to dust
And ashes

We learn to wheel and deal
And say goodbye
And madness all around us
Makes for dyin'
Young deceivers soon turn old
And loft to die amongst their gold
And cash it

Give it up or me live just to die
Give it up (Give it up)
Give it up, give yourself time
(Give it up)
Give it up, save yourself
Give it up 
(Give it up)
Give it up 
(Give it up)

We drive a million miles to see the sun
Hoping we are not too late for saving
The Lord will smile on you today
And give you love that you can trade
For matches and TV and movie stars
And driving cars as cashes

Give it up or me live just to die
Give it up (Give it up)
Give it up, give yourself time
(Give it up)
Give it up, save yourself
Give it up 
(Give it up)
Give it up 
(Give it up)

Give it up
