Give up my life, my heart, my home I would give everything I own, just to have you back again. Why They're Nonsensical: If David Gates, who wrote this song (and also the yukky 'Goodbye Girl') gave up his life, i.e., committed suicide, he wouldn't be around to welcome his lost love back, would he?

The Nonsensical Lyrics: If a man could be two places at one time
I'd be with you Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way Why They're Nonsensical: Dude, you don't need to be in two places at one time to be with your girlfriend today and tomorrow. Just, like, go visit her, stay put and see what happens when the sun rises.

The Lyrics: Baby, I'm-a want you
Baby, I'm-a need you You're the only one I care enough to hurt about Why: "Baby, I want you" and "baby, I need you" wouldn't have fit the rhythm of the song.
