Last night I said these words to my girl I know you never even try girl Come on, come on, come on, come on, Please please me oh yeah like I please you.
As I write this letter, send my love to you, Remember that I'll always be in love with you. Treasure these few words till we're together Keep all my love forever. P.S. I love you, you, you, you.
Listen, do you want to know a secret, Do you promise not to tell, Whoa-o-oh Closer let me whisper in your ear, Say the words you long to hear, I'm in love with you, ooh-o-ooh.
Close your eyes and I'llkiss you, Tomorrow I'll miss you, Remember I'll always be true, And then while I'm away, I'll write home every day, And I'll send all my loving to you.

A Hard Day's Night
I should have known better with a girl like you, That I would love everything that you do, And I do, hey hey hey, and I do.
That when I tell you that I love you, oh You're gonna say you love me too, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, oh And when I ask you to be mine, You're gonna say you love me too.
I Should Have Known Better
If I fell in love with you Would you promise to be true? And help me understand? 'Cause I've been in love before. And I found that love was more Than just holding hands.
I don't want to kiss or hold your hand. If it's funny, try and understand. There is really nothing else I'd rather do. 'Cause I'm happy just to dance with you.
I'll give you all I got to give if you say you love me too I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love.
I got something to say that might cause you pain, If I catch you talking to that boy again, I'm gonna let you down, and leave you flat. Because I told you before, oh, you can't do that.
I tried to telephone, They said you were not home, That's a lie. 'Cause I know where you've been, I saw you walk in your door. I nearly died, I nearly died. 'Cause you walked hand in hand With another man in my place.

We said our goodbyes, ah, the night before. Love was in your eyes, ah, the night before. Now today I find you have changed your mind. Treat me like you did the night before.
If you don't take her out tonight, She's going to change her mind. And I will take her out tonight, And I will treat her kind. You're going to lose that girl, You're going to lose that girl. If you don't treat her right, my friend, You're going to find her gone. 'Cause I will treat her right, and then You'll be the lonely one.
Baby, you can drive my car, and maybe I'll love you.
Asked a girl what she wanted to be, She said, baby can't you see? I wanna be famous, a star of the screen, But you can do something in between. Baby, you can drive my car, yes I'm gonna be a star, Baby, you can drive my car, and maybe I'll love you.
When I call you up, Your line's engaged. I have had enough, So act your age. We have lost the time That was so hard to find. And I will lose my mind If you won't see me.
He's a real Nowhere Man, Sitting in his Nowhere Land, Making all his Nowhere plans for nobody. Doesn't have a point of view, Knows not where he's going to, Isn't he a bit like you and me?

Was she told when she was young thepain would lead topleasure? Did she understand it when they said That a man must break his back to earn his day of leisure, Will she still believe it when he's dead? Ah girl, girl.
There are places I'll remember All mylife though some have changed. Some forever not for better. Some have gone and some remain. All these places have their moments With lovers and friends I still can recall. Some are dead and some are living. In my life, I've loved them all.
If you drive a car, I'lltax the street, If you try to sit, I'll tax your seat, If you get too cold, I'll tax the heat, If you take a walk, I'll tax your feet. Taxman. ‘Cos I'm the Taxman, Yeah, I'm the Taxman.

Father McKenzie, writing the words of a sermon that no-one will hear, No one comes near Look at him working, darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there, What does he care? All the lonely people, where do they all come from? All the lonely people, where do they all belong?

Here, making each day of the year, Changing my life with the wave of her hand. Nobody can deny that there's something there.
There, running my hands through her hair. Both of us thinking how good it can be. Someone is speaking but she doesn't know he's there.
I want her everywhere and if she's beside me I know I need never care. But to love her is to need her everywhere. Knowing that love is toshare.
Each day just goes so fast I turn around, it's past You don't get time to hang a sign on me A lifetime is so short A new one can't be bought But what you've got means such a lot to me There's people standing round Who'll screw you in the ground They'll fill you in with all their sins, you'll see

I used to get mad at my school The teachers who taught me weren't cool. You're holding me down, turning me round Filling me up with your rules. I've got to admit it's getting better, A little better all the time.

We were talking About the space between us all. And the people who hide themselves Behind a wall of illusion Never glimpse the truth. Then it's far too late When they pass away.

When I get older losing my hair, Many years from now. Will you still be sending me a valentine, Birthday greetings bottle of wine? If I'd been out till quarter to three Would you lock the door? Will you still need me, will you still feed me When I'm sixty-four?
Lovely Rita meter maid, nothing can come between us. When it gets dark I tow your heart away. Standing by a parking meter, When I caught a glimpse of Rita. Filling in the ticket in her little white book.
Going to work don't want to go feeling low down; Heading for home you start to roam then you're in town. Everybody knows there's nothing doing; Everything is closed it's like a ruin; Everyone you see is half asleep. And you're on your own, you're in the street. Good morning, good morning.

The Beatles were so big that it’s hard for people not alive at the time to realize just how big they were. There isn’t a real comparison with anyone now. I supposeMichael Jackson at one point, but it still doesn’t seem quite the same. They were so big that to be competitive with them was impossible. I’m talking about in record sales and tours and all this. They were huge. They were bigger than Jesus! ~Mick Jagger
We knew that America would make us or break us as world stars. In fact, she made us.
I say in speeches that a plausible mission ofartists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, "The Beatles did."
