Badfinger - Give It Up lyrics

We live in hope of love and wait to die
And sadness all around us makes for cryin'
And feelings that once meant so much
Are left to dry and turn to dust and ashes

We learn to wheel and deal and say goodbye
And madness all around us makes for dyin'
The young deceivers soon turn old
And left to die amongst their gold
And caches

Give it up or we'll end on the rocks
Give it up (Give it up)
Give it up, give yourself time
Give it up, Savior's in shock, give it up
(Give it up) give it up (Give it up)

We drive a million miles to see the Son
Hopin' we are not too late for savin'
The Lord will smile on you today
Give you love that you can trade
For matches, TV and movie stars, drivin' cars
Is catchin'

Give it up or we'll end on the rocks
Give it up (Give it up)
Give it up, give yourself time
Give it up, Savior's in shock, give it up
(Give it up) give it up (Give it up)

(Give it up, Give it up)
(Give it up)

(Give it up, Give it up)
(Give it up)

(Give it up, Give it up)
(Give it up)

(Give it up, Give it up)
(Give it up)

(Give it up, Give it up)
(Give it up)

(Give it up, Give it up)
(Give it up)
