By Richard Starkey and Vini Poncia
ME AND BILLY WERE A COUPLE OF KIDS,
NOBODY KNEW ABOUT THE THINGS THAT WE DID.
SHARING OUR TOYS AND RIDING OUR BIKES,
WE THOUGHT IT WOULD LAST FOR THE REST OF OUR LIVES.
BUT WE GAVE IT ALL UP,
WE GAVE IT ALL UP,
WE GAVE IT ALL UP FOR SCHOOL.
THEN MY FAM'LY HAD TO MOVE OUT OF TOWN,
MADE SOME NEW FRIENDS AND STARTED HANGIN' AROUND.
STARTED STEALING LIKE THE REST OF THE GUYS,
MY FRIEND GOT CAUGHT, I SAW THE FEARS IN HIS EYES.
SO I GAVE IT ALL UP,
I GAVE IT ALL UP,
I GAVE IT ALL UP FOR LOVE.
SHE WAS EIGHTEEN AND I TOPPED HER BY ONE,
SHE SAID SHE'S HEARD ABOUT THE BAD THINGS I'VE DONE.
BUT SHE LOVED ME AND SHE JUST DIDN'T CARE,
BUT ONE NIGHT SHE NEEDED ME AND I WASN'T THERE.
SO SHE GAVE ME RIGHT UP, (gave me right up)
SHE GAVE ME RIGHT UP, (gave me right up)
SHE GAVE ME RIGHT UP FOR LOVE.
AS I LOOK BACK AND WONDER,
HAVE I WASTED MY TIME?
WILL I EVER LEARN THE MEANING OF LIFE,
WILL I LEARN IT IN TIME.
SO I SIT HERE WITH A COUPLE OF BEERS,
WONDERING HOW I'VE LASTED ALL OF THESE YEARS.
YOU'RE BESIDE ME AND IT'S FEELING SO RIGHT,
HOW I'D LIKE TO THANK YOU FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.
'CAUSE I GAVE IT ALL UP, (gave it all up)
I GAVE IT ALL UP, (gave it all up)
I GAVE IT ALL UP FOR YOU.
GAVE IT ALL UP,
I GAVE IT ALL UP,
I GAVE IT ALL UP FOR YOU.
(All for you, gave it all up for you) GAVE IT ALL UP FOR YOU,
(All for you, gave it all up for you) SO I GAVE IT ALL UP FOR YOU,
(All for you, gave it all up for you) GAVE IT ALL UP FOR YOU,
(All for you, gave it all up for you) SO I GAVE IT ALL UP FOR YOU.
(All for you, gave it all up for you)
(All for you, gave it all up for you)

Sir Ringo Starr, nato Richard Starkey il 7 luglio 1940 a Liverpool, Inghilterra, è un leggendario musicista britannico noto soprattutto per essere stato il batterista dei Beatles. La sua carriera musicale inizia nei primi anni '60 con i Quarrymen, gruppo precursore dei Beatles. Con l'arrivo di Paul McCartney e George Harrison, Ringo si afferma come componente fondamentale della band, contribuendo con la sua energia contagiosa e un sound ritmico unico. Oltre a batterista, Ringo ha anche cantato diversi brani per i Beatles, tra cui "Yellow Submarine", "With a Little Help from My Friends" e "Octopus's Garden". Dopo lo scioglimento dei Beatles nel 1970, Ringo ha intrapreso una carriera da solista di successo, pubblicando numerosi album e collaborando con artisti come George Harrison, Paul McCartney e Harry Nilsson. Nel corso della sua lunga carriera, Ringo Starr è stato insignito del titolo di Sir dal Queen Elizabeth II nel 1981 per i suoi contributi alla musica britannica. Oltre alla musica, Ringo ha anche recitato in diversi film e si dedica alla pittura.
