Though you’ve been gone for just a week
It makes me feel so sad to speak
Lady come back
I miss you
And though before I didn’t cry
Now my eyes are never dry
And a thousand jesters couldn’t make me smile
I miss you
I miss you
And now I know that I was wrong
But it’s too late, for now you’ve gone
Lady come back
I miss you
And though our times were good and bad
Now you’re gone, I’m always sad
And a thousand jesters couldn’t make me smile
I miss you
I miss you
I miss you
Thank you for posting this. It makes me think about a very good friend of mine whom I have not heard from in weeks that I really miss a lot. It makes me sad because she's very sick and I don't know if I'll ever get to talk with her again.
I love Badfinger- one of the best bands ever formed, but it's hard for me to listen to them without thinking of what horribly tragic story their story is. Pete Ham and Tom Evans were geniuses who couldn't get proper help for their sufferings in those days and both committed suicide in one of the worst ways. Now Joey Molland is the only surviving member. Badfinger are amazing and I hope Pete and Tom are up there in heaven with all the other great ones we've lost.
I ALWAYS love the line ''and a thousand jesters, couldn't make me smile'' Pete was truly a genius and I still miss that guy, he has struck the inner chords of my soul. he and Tommy were made for each other, all they wanted to do was play, perform, record, and share their musical souls with the world.
Again Pete Ham turns in a beautiful Paul McCartney style vocal. Beautiful. Ham could have easily sung McCartney parts if The Beatles reunited without Paul. What he does for me, because I was always aware of Badfinger but never bought much, is give me an indication of what some late Beatle McCartney songs could have sounded like. This is definitely one.
