Hard Days Night
One of
Lennon’s early ballads, and ’semi-autobiographical’
according to the author himself. But who is he singing to?
Lennon was married to Cynthia at the time, but he later
admitted he was having affairs.
The voices
of Lennon and McCartney combine really well here, and it’s
surprising that this fine tune is relatively unknown.
If I Fell
(John Lennon/Paul McCartney)
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've found that love is more
That just holding hands
If I gave
my heart to you
I must be sure from the very start
that you would love me more than her
If I trust
in you, oh please
don't run and hide,
if I love you too, oh please
don't hurt my pride like her
'Cause
I couldn't stand the pain
And I would be sad
If our new love was in vain
So I hope
you see that I
would love to love you
And that she will cry
when she learns we are two
'Cause
I couldn't stand the pain
And I would be sad
If our new love was in vain
So I hope
you see that I
would love to love you
And that she will cry
when she learns we are two
If I fell in love with you
