Reportedly a plea from Pete Ham to Warner Brothers not to lose faith after the first album Badfinger did for the label did not sell well (and had no hits.) Regardless of the inspiration, the song ROCKS! Would have made a great single in the power pop tradition of "No Matter What" or "Baby Blue". A wonderful blast of guitar pop that should not be missed.
Actually, this song was written when Pete fell in love with Anne Ferguson, who was married to their roadie, Ian. He is asking those involved to give them a chance and try to understand what happened....that they weren't trying to hurt anyone, but that they just fell in love. Anne is Petera's (Pete's daughter) mother.
