Carly Elisabeth Simon (born June 25, 1945 in New York City) is an American musician who emerged as one of the leading lights of the early 1970s singer-songwriter boom. Simon's major breakthrough was 1972's No Secrets. The album spawned several successful singles, including Simon's biggest hit, "You're So Vain". Simon continued to produce sucessful albums though the 70s and early 80s, moving into film scores after she was dropped by her record label in 1985. "You're So Vain" is a sarcastic profile of a self-absorbed lover.

Can’t Give It Up Lyrics
Carly Simon
(simon/goldmark)
Ive been saying that id
Leave well enough alone
Now Im behaving
Like Im begging you for a bone
When it feels good you cant help it
You just hang by the phone
And it felt that good last night
I cant give it up
You come on like a prince
You got everyone convinced
That youre a prince of a man
But Im the one who knows you
Im the one you show that you
Dont give a damn
Cant give it up, oh no, cant give it up
Ive been dreaming youd fall in love with me
No cold blooded scheming
If it could be that easy
But you still fight it
And I must like it
That I have to reach for what I want
And as long as it feels that good
I cant give it up
I dont want to want you
I dont want to want you
cause you cant give, cant give
No, I dont want you cause you
Cant give....
